This past week has been a busy one for the Mid-Prairie Speech team! Right on the heels of the IHSSA Large Group All-State Festival on Saturday, February 21, 13 members of the Mid-Prairie Speech Team competed in 21 events at the River Valley Conference Individual Events Speech contest at Maquoketa High School on Monday, February 23. At this contest, 5 students placed in the top three "Best in Center," according to the judges in each category.
Congratulations to MPHS Student of the Week, Braelee Yoder! Braelee was nominated by Mrs. Baker, "Whenever I saw Braelee the first half of the year, she was smiling and always friendly. She did a great job helping with homecoming. Now I have her in geometry, and she works very hard. She is always willing to talk through her thinking with her neighbors in class. She asks great questions! She also plays hard on the basketball court!" Great work, Braelee!
Congratulations to MPHS Student of the Week, Wren Harris! Wren was nominated by Mrs. Meader, "On the speech team, she has been a steady and calm presence, very supportive of all of her teammates. At our last contest, Wren noticed a student from another school in distress and made the effort to check in with them and hear what was going on. We need more Wrens in the world!" Congrats, Wren!
Congratulations to MPHS Student of the Week, Cameron Scott! Cameron was nominated by Mr. Cavanagh, "Cameron has really turned around his grades in the past year. He is doing very well in all of his classes. His general attitude and effort have been awesome. Keep up the great work!"
Congratulations to our MPHS Student of the week, Kennah Robertson! Kennah was nominated by Mrs. Stutzman, "Kennah deserves an "Atta Girl!" for the way she has started her semester in Spanish 2. She talked with me before the semester began and vowed to try her hardest in Spanish 2. She definitely has. She comes in during Hawk Block often, stayed after school one day for extra help, has created her own flash cards, frequently studies them, and has made sure to reach out when she was unable to be in class. All the makings of a successful semester! Keep it up, Kennah!"
