🎉-Ships Shout Outs!-👏

Mr. Thennes presented awards to two amazing students who earned Do Good Wisconsin Student of the Month recognition for the month of January!

First up is Javier R. Ms. Mulhaney, reported that Javier spends his free class periods in the school store interacting with students with special needs. He is a friend to everyone and is protective and concerned for others. Javier… the world needs more kindness and acceptance! Keep it up!

Next, Oscar E. Oscar was also nominated by Ms. Mulhaney, who said, “Oscar has chosen to be a mentor/buddy to students with disabilities and he has taken on his experiences to the fullest. He has participated with buddies in several fun activities such as decorating holiday cookies and swimming, and he couldn't have been more of a gentleman. Oscar has taken valuable time to get to know kids in our school that many do not.” Thank you for leading by such a wonderful example, Oscar! You rock!
