This month’s South Putnam Middle School Student of the Month is Taylor Wagoner. Taylor was nominated by Mrs. Bye. She wrote: “Taylor is a conscientious student and kind to everyone. In class her work is top notch and she took the lead on writing a Quadratic equation for her group project in Advanced Algebra. She is involved in our school as a member of the Student Council, President of National Juniors Honor Society, and she participated on the math and English academic teams. She is responsible and respectful and makes our school a better place.” That is wonderful Taylor!
Last month’s South Putnam Middle School Student of the Month was Bryan Bye. He was nominated by Mrs. Wells. She wrote: “Bryan is one of the kindest students I have ever had in class! He is considerate and thoughtful to peers and courteous to his teachers and other adults. Bryan is also willing to participate in class, help his fellow classmates and work hard to get good grades. Not only does Bryan excel in academics, but he is very involved with clubs and sports as well. He was an active member of the spell bowl team, and he works diligently on the middle school student council. He was also on the middle school cross country team and is currently running track. He is definitely going places, and it has been a privilege to get to know Bryan this year.” Well done Bryan!
