Luke Garrett has earned the honor of being named Student of the Week. He is in 5th grade and was chosen because of his hard work in music class. Luke's determination and self-motivation played a big part in him being one of the first to complete the Karate Recorder Program. He comes prepared, ready to learn and play every day. He is always willing to help his classmates advance as well, lending a bit of advice when asked. His self-confidence and courage was evident when he brought his guitar to class to sing and play for his peers. His greatest compliment is having the class join in. Luke is an example to those around him to accomplish the goals you set out to achieve, whether in music or something else. Congratulations, Luke!

Bella is a fifth grade student, she is the daughter of Adrianne Grawey. Bella has a great attitude and is always kind and caring. She always has a smile, and more recently, her sense of humor has started to show. Bella is friendly, courteous and responsible. She works hard and takes her schoolwork seriously. She has a positive attitude and is a pleasure to have in class. Bella works conscientiously and diligently and always strives to do her best. Bella’s participation within the class shows her engagement with the material and her motivation to learn more. I have enjoyed watching her grow as a student and as a person over the past couple years.
