2nd Grade
Sparsh Singh
Sparsh deserves to be recognized as the student of the month. There are many reasons Sparsh is deserving of this special honor.
For example, Sparsh is very intelligent. He performs very well in all academic areas such as reading, writing, and math. He completes all assignments accurately, thoroughly, and neatly. He thinks deeply about his learning and always puts his best effort forth in class. He enjoys being challenged and shares his knowledge with his peers.
In addition, Sparsh is a very responsible student. He is always aware of school and classroom expectations. He can be trusted to go about the school day with integrity. He listens attentively in class in a quiet and respectful way. If his teachers need help in any way, they know they can depend on Sparsh to get the job done.
Finally, Sparsh is considerate and caring toward all of his classmates. He always speaks to others with kindness and puts the needs of others before his own. I am very proud of Sparsh and know that he will continue to meet with success throughout his years in school! Congratulations on being selected as student of the month!

Iqual Melvin AND Layla Rice
Iqual Melvin is my pick for student of the month. Iqual has been working so hard at school and is doing great work! In addition to his progress in his classwork, Iqual has been focusing on making good choices, particularly on the carpet during lessons and when completing work at his seat. Iqual has shown perseverance and determination in his work, and I am very proud of him for trying his best even when tasks are difficult. Way to go Iqual!
Layla Rice consistently shows kindness to her classmates and teachers. She offers help to her peers, and shares with others each day. In addition to her kind heart, she produces wonderful classwork. She is always putting in great effort and shows creativity and focus in everything she does. Layla takes pride in learning. She comes to school with enthusiasm and curiosity. Whether we're reading a story, exploring numbers, or doing hands-on science activities, Layla is eager to participate and learn more.
1st Grade
Reet Patel
Reet joined our school this year and has transitioned seamlessly into our community. She is a hardworking and responsible student who consistently puts forth her best effort. Reet has made excellent progress in reading and continues to grow in confidence and skill. She is also kind, caring, and always willing to help others, making her a valued friend and classmate.
