Congratulations to the December Middle School and High School Students of the Month!
Middle School
Eli Richter and Maci Ohren-Shores
High School
Eli Jeppesen and Sarah Wagner
What Staff have to say about the students of the month:
Eli R. puts a lot of effort into his school work in class. He asks questions, participates and uses his time wisely to get tasks completed. He also is willing to use his time outside of class to get school work completed for when they are due. He is responsible and is a leader in the classroom when it comes to following expectations and work completion.
Maci works the entire hour in my class. She is respectful. She helps others. She chooses to follow classroom expectations even when others do not.
Eil J. is a great student who is always willing to go above and beyond to make sure he understands the curriculum. He is always helpful with the other students in class. Eli is an all around great person. He works hard in class, helps his classmates, and always has a positive attitude.
Sarah brightens a classroom every time she walks in. She includes everyone and will always lighten the mood. Even when things are challenging, she will keep working at it until she understands. She is one of the nicest students in our building who always has a smile on her face and is willing to chat with everyone. Also, when she asks how someone is, she genuinely wants to know.

Ms. Rippentrop's Reading Intervention students read winter stories to the Pre-K through 1st grade students last week. They all did a fantastic job and got great fluency and expression practice in.
