Bradley has shown great determination in the classroom this last month!!! He is always wanting to do his absolute best, and takes his time to make sure things are done right the first time. He is always willing to share with others and help anyone that is in need! Mr. Champagne, Mrs. Koenigs, Mrs. Kowalski, and Mrs. Topel are very proud of you Bradley!!!! Keep up the good work!!!
Destiny is a kind, helpful and hard working young lady. She comes in every day with a smile on her face and a great attitude. We really appreciate how Destiny is ready to learn each day and is respectful of her classmates and teachers. Thanks Destiny for being a great example for our second grade friends. Keep up the good work and keep smiling!
Mathew is such an awesome third grader. He is always the first one to welcome back any student who has been out sick and is so kind to all his classmates. Mathew tries his best every day and has a really good attitude. Even if he gets stuck he still makes his best attempt at working through it. I enjoy seeing Mathew's smile every morning. It makes my day! Way to go Mathew!
Emma is well deserving of Student of the Month. She puts 100% into everything she does. Emma has a strong work ethic, but more importantly she is kind and respectful. Emma is always willing to help any student that needs it. We're lucky to have Emma in 4th grade.
