HECTOR of the Week
JH - Brooklyn Phillups-Brooklyn has been outstanding in school this year. She has a positive attitude and is always optimistic. She works very hard in class and in sports. She goes above and beyond to do things the right way. She is a great asset to our school and is a great example of HECTOR in the Junior High.
HS - Emma Russell has gotten really excited about her SAE project of late. She can't wait to use the materials we have to grow and analyze her plants. She is a calm, cool, collected student who always performs at the highest level regardless of the setting she is in. She continues to be excellent and coachable athletically and academically while being very optimistic about her next chapters.
Staff - Mrs. Snow is a great leader and support for her staff and students. She is always willing to help me whenever I need some support or coverage. Thank you Mrs. Snow for being HECTOR.
