Student of the Month

Each month teachers select two students from their class who not only follow our school rules of Be Safe, Be Respectful and Be Responsible, but also go above and beyond in the areas of scholarly behavior in the classroom and on the playground. This committee puts together the rewards presented at our monthly Pride Assembly to honor these students.
