School No. 1 Student of the Month
Betty Cisneros is one of the hardest working and humble students that we have in the 6th grade. She is always prepared for class and can be counted on to have her work completed at all times. She puts forth her best effort in all that she does. Her positive attitude towards school can be seen through her participation in all classes, math projects and social studies slide presentations. She also has a great sense of humor and can be caught smiling or even giggling when she takes 1st place in a Kahoot review for an upcoming test or quiz. Betty is an enthusiastic and avid reader. She is a wonderful role model for her peers, displaying genuine interest in literature. She gives 110% effort in every task. Betty’s caring nature does not go unrecognized. She is very kind and can be trusted to be supportive of her classmates. For these reasons, Betty is an extremely deserving student of the month.
