NBHS Student Council Student of the Month for November - Braiden Matthiesen
Congratulaitons, Braiden! Here is what his nominator had to say about him:
Braiden has been so helpful to me this year. Yes, he's the President of the Spanish Club, and he has a lot of duties that go along with that, but he always goes above and beyond his duties. I know that I can count on him to get things done. He takes the initiative, and he always does whatever he does to the best of his abilities. He's also a teaching assistant in my Spanish I class. He helps out with leading games, and he does such a great job! I think he'd make a fantastic teacher. I appreciate all of his efforts. On top of all of that, he's just a great student. He cares about his performance and genuinely wants to learn. He's helpful to those around him. In my teaching career, I'd consider Braiden as one of my top students, for sure.
School Attendance Matters!
Here is our building's Weekly Attendance Update through November 26th. December is Final Exam Prep Time - Finish the Semester Strong, Pretzels!!
