Congratulations to MPHS Student of the Week, Haydon Bailey! Haydon was nominated by Mrs. Meader, "Haydon is a great student leader in the speech and drama departments, and is highly respected by his peers in those departments. As student director for the spring play, he has given the production loads of imaginative vision, from designing the set, to acting multiple roles on stage, to leading warmups before most rehearsals. Haydon has also provided insight in all aspects of this play, and the wizarding world behind it. All while being an excellent student!" Great job, Haydon!
Congratulations to MPHS Student of the Week, Jesse Stultz! Jesse was nominated by Mrs. Puttmann, "Jesse (as well as many students) had a couple of crazy busy weeks with extracurricular activities, including state jazz band competition, band concert, music contest, and soccer games (and probably even more). Through it all he has continued to prioritize his academics. Jesse comes in before school and in Hawk Block to catch up on what he has missed. I'm so proud of his hard work. Jesse is also a kind and considerate classmate. Thanks for being a part of the Mid-Prairie family!" Great work, Jesse!
Congratulations to MPHS Student of the Week, Abby Fleming! Abby was nominated by Mrs. Boman, "Abby is currently taking AP Chemistry. Despite the rigors of the course, Abby approaches each challenge with determination and an unyielding growth mindset. When faced with complex problems, she persists, grappling with the material until she achieves mastery." Great work, Abby!
Congratulations to our MPHS Student of the Week, Jacob Carrillo! Jacob was nominated by Mr. Snakenburg, "Jacob is a fine student with an excellent sense of humor. He has made the classes that I have had him in very fun and engaging." Great job, Jacob!
Congratulations to our MPHS Student of the Week, Parker English! Parker was nominated by Mrs. Baker, "Parker is very conscientious. He helps other students in seminar, studies hard, and is always willing to ask questions." Great work, Parker!
Congratulations to MPHS Student of the Week, Ella Titus! Ella was nominated by Mrs. Seward, "She works as the TA in the Culinary Foundations class and then is a student in Culinary II. Last week the Culinary II class ran late and left the lab in a less than pristine state. She came in on Friday and totally cleaned the lab so it would be ready for an event being hosted there over the weekend. This was over and above what was expected, but it was SO appreciated! Ella is a wonderful support to the Culinary Foundations students and a strong leader in the Culinary II class." Great work, Ella!
Congratulations to MPHS Student of the Week, Anthony Culbertson! Anthony was nominated by Mrs. Seward, "Anthony is in Global Cuisine this semester and is showing great leadership in a full and diverse class. He has taken lots of culinary classes, so he is knowledgeable and his leadership is very much appreciated! Anthony has early release and offers to stay at the end after our 3rd block class to help with the last parts of clean up every day. He always asks if there is more that he can help with." Great work, Anthony!
Congratulations to MPHS Student of the Week, Ariel Kaufman! Ariel was nominated by Mrs. Mercer, "Ariel works hard at everything she does. She is always willing to help me in seminar with any task I may have and takes the initiative to work on new projects related to the yearbook. Her positivity is a delight in the classroom." Great job, Ariel!
Congratulations to our MPHS Student of the Week, Jack Greiner! Jack was nominated by Mrs. McClellen, "He has been an incredibly strong leader this year in choir and drama. He has a great attitude in class and is an excellent role model for younger students. He has taken on more roles of leadership, and I very much appreciate all that he has accomplished in the last four years. He will be presenting his Senior Recital on March 23rd to showcase his talents in the fine arts." Great work, Jack!
Congratulations to MPHS Student of the Week, Lukin Rediger! Mrs. Sieren nominated Lukin, "Lukin was a great student to have in physics last semester as he always brought a positive attitude to class and encouraged others during our physics design challenges. Sometimes when the class content was difficult or if his designs didn't work out like he planned, Lukin never let that get him down. Instead, he always used it as motivation to keep trying and continued to push himself as a student!" Great work, Lukin!
