STUDENT OF THE WEEK
Congratulations to student of the week Olivia S. Olivia was nominated by Mrs. Dukate.
Olivia is a hard worker and always looking for ways to get better. After running the 12 minute run she asked if she could redo it during her home room because she thought she could do better. The self motivation and pushing herself to greatness is not often found at this age:)
