Happy Birthday Irene Rangel and Abigail Gnaden
Student of the Week
5th-Jonah Mockbee
Jonah is a very responsible, motivated and passionate student. He comes to school every day with a smile and an excitement for learning, and a dedication for going above and beyond. Jonah makes sure that his daily work is accurate and of the utmost quality. His work ethic and focus on doing well is an inspiration to his classmates. Jonah is a wonderful student who will continue to excel in all his endeavors.
6th- Evan Gernand
First, Evan is extremely consistent. We can always count on him to make good choices and get his assignments completed on time. The teachers have also seen major growth in him this year and know that Evan is going to be a stellar seventh grader.
7th- Dalton Hegg
Dalton has had a great school year! He is very friendly to all of his peers and one of the most respectful students to his teachers. I have enjoyed having him in class for three years, and now he is ready to be a leader in this building as an 8th grader next fall. Awesome job Dalton!
8th- Leo Vera
Leo is always ready for P.E. Class. He has enjoyed every activity we have done this year and is never shy about trying something new. He does a fantastic job of following expectations. I have had a great time with Leo in class. I wish him nothing but the best as he moves on. Good Luck next year, Leo.
