Banin Lee- Banin is always prepared and on task in Art! He is there ready to work and be his best creative self! He is respectful and kind to the people around him! AWESOME Student! He is a fantastic student. He works hard, has a great attitude, and is a good example to all of the students around him. He makes every classroom a better place.Zandile Kauro- Zandi is a joy to have in class. She is positive, friendly, works hard and always participates with enthusiasm. She is so kind to all around her and is always willing to help out! She seeks to learn and listen while keeping an eye out for others who may feel left out. Zandi is one of the best!!Alakea Petersen- Alakea is a very brave, smart and kind student. She is one of two girls in my Exploring Technology class with 30 boys. She holds her own and is an example of hard work and smart intellect in my class. She has excelled in my class and has been willing to lead her table in various activities and kindly help those who struggle with assignments. Her parents have raised a very responsible and kind daughter.Jace Hooley-Jace Hooley is an excellent worker! He did a wonderful job on our last essay and really helped his classmates with theirs. He is always on time and he works hard in class. Jace is a phenomenal student with a lot of great qualities. He obviously does really well in school. He has a great work ethic and he shows that school is very important to him. He participates in class and knows so much about the content we discuss in class. He will be a good teacher someday. He also is respected and liked by his peers. Hayden Jacobson- I have found Hayden Jacobson to be a quiet powerhouse of a student. Though quiet and always respectful, Hayden is a deep thinker, excellent student, powerful friend and role model to his peers. Recently at our school science fair, Hayden presented an awesome project on Kombucha. His efforts earned him first place in the Biology & Biochemistry category and an invitation to present his project at the Nebo School District science fair on February 19th in Springville. I am honored to have the opportunity to nominate Hayden Jacobson as a student of the month.Alli Blake- Alli is a great student! She comes to class happy and ready to work every day. Her positive attitude, great work ethic, and growth mindset is what makes her so successful in everything she does. She is a wonderful student. She always goes above and beyond in her work, and tries her best to succeed. More importantly, Alli is a phenomenal human being-one that spreads kindness and positivity wherever she goes. She actively looks for those that need help and tries to uplift her peers. She is creative and artistic and kind and sweet and all things wonderful. Our school and our world are better places because Alli Blake is here!
Our PJHS recipient of the February Mayor's Youth Recognition Award is Ephriam Wilde. Ephriam received positive recognition from his teachers: Ephraim Wilde has always come to class with a smile and a positive attitude. He is kind to others and works hard on all of his assignments. He works so hard to be able to do this every day, and I appreciate him so much. He brightens everyone's day, and I believe we need more people like Ephraim in this world! Ephraim always comes to class prepared and ready to learn. He's a skilled student that also gets along well with his peers. Ephraim has been wonderful to work with this year. He doesn't complain when work is hard and always has a smile. He has a great attitude and is a joy to have in class. It would be wonderful to have more students in class like him! Ephraim brings such a positive energy to class. He is super polite and kind to those that are around him. I can count on him to work hard and help those who are struggling.
