Amber Smith (Grade 9)
Nominated by: D. Morgan, A. Cirincione & A. Williams for Academics & Citizenship
“Amber is a student who cares deeply about her success and puts in the effort to do well academically. She is an exemplary member of the school community. She is the first to offer assistance to anyone in her classes. She is active in extracurricular activities including Drama Club and Devils for Inclusion. She is excited to be a part of Unified Basketball. She wants to work with people with disabilities when she gets older and has requested that her schedule next year include a lunch period that will allow her to work with our Life Skills classes. She is a genuinely caring and giving individual who deserves to be recognized as Student of the Month.”
Adam Burek (Grade 9)
Nominated by: M. White for Citizenship
“Adam is a leader in English class. He is always on time and is always prepared. However, my favorite thing that Adam does is every single day at the end of class. Adam thanks Ms. Domalewicz and myself for teaching him that day. Just that small act of kindness/respect goes a long way.”
