His unique presentation style and genuine enthusiasm had students fully engaged throughout the assembly.

The Coupeville Lions Club proudly announces its Students of the Quarter for the second academic quarter of 2024-25. Continuing their 87-year tradition of supporting academic excellence, the Lions Club selected Makenna Jonker-Chambers and Pamela Morrell for this distinguished recognition.

Makenna Jonker-Chambers maintains a stellar 3.8 GPA while actively participating in Cheer, Executive Board, National Honor Society, and Captains' Club. Beyond academics, she demonstrates community commitment through tutoring and Vacation Bible School leadership. The daughter of Amy Jonker and Donald Chambers, Makenna plans to pursue public health studies before advancing to medical school with aspirations in radiology.

Pamela Morrell, daughter of Jennifer and Frank Morrell, exemplifies academic excellence with a 3.88 GPA. Her impressive involvement spans Cheer, Theater, Leos Club, Captain's Club, Sports Medicine Club, National Honor Society, and Skills USA. Pamela's community engagement includes active participation in local parades and dedicated service through the Leos Club. While working at Kapaw's Ice Cream and Apple Orchard Daycare, she maintains her academic focus with plans to attend Whatcom Community College before transferring to Western Washington University.

These exceptional students were selected based on comprehensive criteria including community service, effort, character, social relationships, scholarship, and sportsmanship. The recognition reflects the Lions Club's ongoing commitment to educational excellence, demonstrated by their generous award of $50,000 in scholarships to graduating students last year. This prestigious quarterly award, determined by Coupeville High School staff and teachers, continues to inspire and recognize outstanding student achievement in our community.

This week, Alexandra Lo and Pamela Morrell represented Coupeville High School in the medical assisting and nursing assisting SkillsUSA competition. They did an amazing job, and we couldn’t be prouder of their hard work and dedication in helping launch these fantastic programs at our school. Way to go, Alexandra and Pamela!
