Sa’Niyah Sherman
Sa’Niyah Sherman is like a ray of sunshine when she walks in the class everyday. She starts each day with a smile and a positive attitude. Sa’Niyah is very focused on learning and is always contributing to many of our class discussions. She is a really great friend to everyone. Even though she has a strong competitive spirit she is a big cheerleader to both sides of a team. She supports her friends, includes others and is always trying to turn someone's bad day into a smile. Sa’Niyah has had such a positive influence on our class this
Kindergarten
Dorothy Nosek
Dotty comes to school each day with a positive attitude and ready to learn. She is very helpful to her peers and teachers. She challenges herself by reading harder books during reading groups. She is kind to her friends and serves as a leader in our classroom. I can always count on Dotty to follow a direction the first time it is given! Dotty has a passion for writing and loves to write "how to stories". Keep up the great work Dotty!
1st Grade
Alexandra Okorie
Alexandra was chosen as our first grade student of the month because she embodies so many of the Clara Barton Unity Words. She is truthful, respectful, and kind! She has also improved. Alex is more patient, and she is better able to communicate her thoughts and feelings with classmates and teachers. Alex is also becoming more independent and flexible when things change throughout the school day. Alex has a wonderful smile and positive energy about her! She brings joy to the class each day!
