Student of the Week!
Jaey is our student of the week this week. He works extremely hard in class and serves as a great role model to his peers. He is a member of our National Junior Beta Club where he participates in discussions, aims to provide acts of kindness, and instills positive traits through appropriate manners. We are proud of Jaey!
