Introducing....

The Highlands Elementary School Room 1 Student of the Week!

Her name got announced over the intercom this morning. She was invited to the lobby to receive her certificate, signed by the principal and to receive her special "Highlands Student of the Week pencil."

Tomorrow she gets to bring in a baby picture. Wednesday she's supposed to bring in her favorite book. Thursday she's to bring in something that represents her outside of school and what she likes to do. Friday she gets to bring in snack for her classmates.

She's really proud of herself and worked really hard for it. Two weeks ago, Regean was the first SOTW. Last week it was Elijah G. Each day the SOTW gets to choose a friend to sit with them at lunch in the special SOTW table. She was Elijah G's guest once last week. Regean was her's today. Tomorrow will be Vada. Wednesday either Elijah G or James.

When she started talking to me about snack on Friday she said, "I think you should make brownies." I said, "I was thinking rice krispy treats," and she said, "But no, someone else already brought them in." "Addie, you told me that Elijah G brought in munchkins. What did Regean bring?" "Yeah, it was Regean she brought in rice krispy treats." So I'll be making brownies. I don't want to mess with the SOTW!

She was chosen "because she demonstrated the four characteristics of a Highlands Wildcat-- courteous, cooperative, respectful and responsible." Yup, that 'bout sums her up.
