Mr. McCullough also compliments Connor’s leadership in the band and says that he is hardworking and willing to do anything to help. Mrs. Powers, Mrs. Hall, Mrs. Smith, and Mrs Blevins all had something to say about Connor’s politeness in the classroom and the smile on his face when greeting students and staff. Mrs. Smith even mentioned his value of punctuality, attendance, and enthusiasm. 


Trace was nominated by Mrs. Graham. She says that he is a very patient, studious, and caring young man. Each day, Trace greets all of his classmates at the door as they enter the classroom and hands them their morning assignments. Trace also makes sure that his classmates have the supplies necessary for class and very often gives numerous other students a pencil or paper. He is always willing to help and will volunteer to run errands and answer questions in class. 


Having two students in our pack who are this kind makes our school so much stronger! Congratulations to this week’s leaders of the pack!
