Lane has done an excellent job at participating in class discussions and asking insightful and thought-provoking questions. Lane has been a great leader in class, making sure to ask questions, include all group members, and participate during large and small group activities. Lane is a hard-working student who prioritizes having no FLEX work and staying on top of assignments.
Oliver consistently shows respect to all of his peers and to school staff. In class he actively participates in the classroom activities and lessons. Oliver demonstrates strong leadership during group assignments by helping others stay focused. Oliver approaches each day with a positive attitude and a willingness to try their best, even when tasks are challenging and is a great role-model for his peers!
Konner is a role model for his peers in 6th grade. He comes to class prepared, works hard, and participates often in discussions. He has a growth mindset and maintains a positive attitude in all his classes. He is a dependable student leader whom staff can rely on.
Bo is hard working, respectful, and determined to succeed. In the classroom he is kind to peers, respectful to all adults, regularly models classroom expectations, and always puts forth his best effort when completing his work. He is determined to meet his academic goals, and is pushing himself to step out of his comfort zone more and more by actively participating in new, and maybe challenging, tasks. By doing so, he has grown leaps and bounds academically, and personally. He is an all around great model student to have here at Mid-Prairie Middle School.
