Acelynn S.  

9th Grade   

 While shy and quiet in class, Acelynn is a joy to see first thing every morning.  When she walks down the hall she's always chatting with her friends and I love that they give a group hug before separating for their classes.  Acelynn is a great student and puts a lot of effort into her English assignments, but it is her genuine personality and care for others that truly impress me.  I am grateful to be her teacher and to have gotten to know her a little bit this semester!

Aurora H.  

11th Grade   

Aurora has truly emerged as a standout leader in our Concert Choir, consistently demonstrating exceptional dedication and a strong sense of responsibility. Her hard-working spirit is evident in everything she does—whether she’s mastering complex musical passages, encouraging her peers, or putting in extra effort to improve her vocal technique. Aurora’s drive to succeed is contagious, inspiring everyone around her to elevate their performance and work together as a cohesive group. What sets her apart, however, is her openness to trying new things, whether it’s exploring different vocal styles, tackling challenging pieces, or stepping out of her comfort zone to experiment with creative ideas. This willingness to embrace new challenges and push boundaries not only enhances her own growth but also contributes to the overall success of the choir. Aurora’s positive attitude, strong work ethic, and collaborative spirit truly make her a joy to have in class, and she is a key asset to our ensemble.
