STUDENT'S OF THE WEEK

A-Gl Student of the Week

The student of the week is Jahanna Daniels nominated by Mrs. Miller.

FAIRNESS

Jahanna literally embodies all of our character traits. She is the student I can always trust to do the right thing whether that is helping a new student find their way around the building, being respectful to her teachers and peers, or checking on someone who is having a bad day. She is a friend to all, and leads by example both in and out of the classroom. – Erin Miller

Go-O Student of the Week

The student of the week is Tien Nguyen nominated by Riley Del Pinto.

" Tien is always an outstanding student. He comes into class and does everything he is supposed to and works hard to be successful. But more than just being a good student, Tien embodies the Character Trait of Kindness. Tien is always polite to others and has never been disrespectful to his peers. As well, Tien is always respectful to teachers and adults. Tien is a great example of what all students should look up to and strive to be.”

P-Z Student of the Week

The student of the week is Luis Rodriguez-Vega nominated by Meggan Ducote.

"I picked Luis because he always is respectful to me and another student who struggles at times during notetaking or group work. I have him at the end of the day and the boys like to banter and playfully tease each other. I noticed him last week sharing his notes to this student without hesitation and making sure he understood what the task was on another day. "
