Congratulations to Hunter Nalley - our newest Indian of the Week! Mr. Cullum had this to say about him, "I am nominating Hunter Nalley for Indian of the Week. He has the second highest average among all of my Geometry students and consistently demonstrates an exceptional work ethic. He takes advantage of every opportunity to work, often when others do not. He regularly answers challenging questions, explains his thinking, and helps classmates understand difficult concepts. He is attentive, respectful, and engaged every day. His ability to maintain such a high level of academic achievement while participating in both JV and Varsity football demonstrates his dedication and ability to balance multiple responsibilities". Amazing job, Hunter!

Congratulations to Judah Sloan on being awarded Indian of the Week! Here's what Mrs. Cockburn had to say - "I am nominating Judah Sloan for Indian of the Week. One thing that sets Judah apart from other students is his sweet and kind personality. He is always so polite in the classroom. He does whatever is asked of him and does so without complaints and goes above and beyond on his assignments. He is a wonderful student and I have enjoyed having him in English class.

Congratulations to Trevion Cannon on being awarded Indian of the Week! Here is what Mr. Burzynski had to say - "I am nominating Trevion Cannon for Indian of the week. The qualities of perseverance and generosity are displayed by Trevion. He has improved his attendance and his work ethic in the classroom. Trevion works at Mcdonalds and I feel that responsibility has really helped Trevion. Trevion meets with Mrs. Ray and usually comes back to class with a snack. He always asks if he can eat the snack before opening. Also, Trevion always offers the other student to share in the snack. I feel Trevion is maturing and becoming a responsible person."

Way to go, Trevion!
