April Students of the Month!
Caleb participates often in health class and adds to class discussions. He also assisted me in a class activity this week. He was able to lead his peers and follow directions to help the class understand an important concept. Caleb also goes above and beyond when completing assignments in health class. I have very much enjoyed having Caleb in class this semester.
If there is a student that embodies a “can do” attitude it’s Kelsea. Every day in class she is driven and determined to do better than the previous day. She works diligently and asks questions as needed in order to obtain the information presented. She is also happy to give a helping hand to those struggling around her. Having worked in several different areas this year, I’ve had the unique opportunity to work with her in different content areas and I can report that she is extremely well rounded in all of her studies. Her determination and diligence extend beyond the walls of the classroom as she is a leader in the student body serving as a class officer as well as being involved in many extracurricular activities. I believe that Kelsea is highly worthy of being awarded student of the month.
Olivia is very conscientious about her studies. She has perfect attendance in Business & Technology Concepts and her work is always done well and on time. Olivia is a freshman in a class with several upperclassmen. Despite this, she takes a leadership roll, interacts well in collaborative learning situations, and is engaged in classroom discussions. Olivia is very pleasant to have in class and respectful to all. I hope to have her in more classes next year.
Olivia is a pleasure to have in class. Her excellent classroom behavior is a great example to others. She is willing to ask for help when needed and has gotten more comfortable as the year has passed. She works hard to be successful. Olivia is very respectful to other students and staff!
Mariah has done an outstanding job in Dual Credit BIO 1001. She comes to class each and every day ready to learn. She has a positive attitude, works hard, and asks questions when she doesn’t understand. Early in the school year, Mariah struggled in this course…but has since learned how to navigate her way through a college course. I am very proud of her for approaching me and asking me what she needed to do to improve. It is evident that she wants to succeed and is willing to put forth the time and effort to do so. I challenge Mariah to finish her junior year strong. Keep up the good work, Mariah!
Chase has been actively participating and striving to improve all semester. He has been seeking out help when writing a business plan lately and has been making a huge effort to turn in quality work even though I know writing isn’t one of his strong suits. I’m proud of the attitude he brings to class.

March Students of the Month!
Cheyanne is on top of her work and she is finishing high school on a strong note. The thing that impresses me the most is how well she uses her time in my class. She does not waste a minute of class and has been a terrific leader to my underclassmen. I am so proud of her!
Kylen is very deserving of Student of the Month honors. She comes to school each day with a positive attitude. Her focus during class is unmatched. I can tell that she enjoys learning. She works hard during class and does a nice job making up work from absences. Kylen is willing to help her classmates struggling with concepts. I encourage Kylen to continue to learn as much as she can and to push herself academically for the remainder of her high school career. Keep up the good work, Kylen!
I have Alea in 3 classes this semester and she is excelling in all of them. She is a hard worker and a positive influence in my classes. She is always engaged and will participate in and contribute to discussions. Her commitment to her academics is displayed through her self-motivation and discipline. Alea is also quick to help other students and gets along with those around her. She is respectful and kind to others. I really enjoy having Alea in class.
I have Emma in German III, and she does a great job. Emma always works hard and comes to class prepared. She is willing to help other students and gets along well with the others in class. Emma is good about asking questions when needed. I enjoy her participation and positive attitude in class.
Kailee Gilbertson was new to my personal fitness, health, and personal effectiveness classes this semester. From day one, she has been a kind soul and has had a very big heart for not only me but the other students in her classes. Kailee writes motivational notes for the other students in her classes meant to help them have a brighter day. Kailee also participates multiple times daily and adds to class discussion. Kailee has made a habit of letting me know how she is using the material that she learns in all three of my classes outside of school and in her daily life. Kailee is a great student in class and I am grateful that I get to see her so often this semester.
Selina is a humble, hard working, and diligent student. She always strives to do her very best with every assignment. She is a joy to have in class. Congratulations Selina.

February Students of the Month!
Amelia works extremely hard in class. She is pleasant and always asks for extra help when needed. I have enjoyed watching Amelia continue to grow over this school year.
This is the fourth year I have had Emma, and I really enjoy seeing her participate so much more in German this semester. She has been a frequent volunteer in class. She has taken time to participate in German Club events, and she gets along well with other students. I appreciate the time and effort she puts into doing well in German.
I have thoroughly enjoyed having Keegan in Human Anatomy & Physiology class this school year. Keegan was upfront and honest early in the school year when he told me that he didn’t intend on taking my class. He mentioned that the science class he signed up for didn’t have enough students to run. Fast forward 5 or 6 months and Keegan is now looking to study anatomy and physiology at the collegiate level. Keegan will do fantastic in college as he possesses critical thinking skills and a love for learning. I consider Keegan a leader during both lecture and lab activities. I appreciate his sense of humor and positive attitude. Keep up the good work, Keegan!
I have had Wyatt in class for the last couple of semesters. He is an excellent role model to the younger kids. He helps out in class with anything that needs to be done. It goes without saying that he is a good student. He has gotten outstanding grades in my classes.
Noah is in my first block personal fitness class and he is here at school and in the gym early every morning ready to go. Noah works very hard during every class and even does a little extra sometimes. Noah has had to modify some of the exercises in class but that never has stopped him from working to his potential. I have watched Noah improve in the areas of strength, flexibility, and endurance. I commend Noah for all of his hard work.
Cole actively participates in English III, and he helps others. He is rarely if ever off task, and I appreciate that greatly. He works hard in class and is always respectful to me. He has grown over the last three years, and I think he is advancing in such a positive and meaningful way.

January Students of the Month!
I nominate Logan Arkels for Student of the Month honors based upon my observations in both BioAg and Homeroom. Logan has done a nice job in BioAg thus far this school year. He uses class time wisely and asks questions when needed. He seems to enjoy the subject matter. Logan also does a nice job in homeroom and works on homework when it is assigned. He is always in a good mood. Logan and I have developed a great relationship over the past 4 years here at PHS. I challenge him to continue to work hard and finish the school year strong.
I had Jackson last semester in Psychology, and truthfully he was one of the hardest working students in the class. Jackson struggled at times to get his work done and completed, but he always made time to come in and ask questions. He ended the course with a A-. Even if he wasn’t always right with his answers I think it shows leadership that he was willing to raise his hand and volunteer to be called on. This shows he is willing to take risks which reflects his strong leadership in the classroom. With that being said, I think Jackson’s character is his major highlight. He is an extremely kind student who has gone above and beyond to help people. I’ve seen this numerous times from simply holding the door to striking up a conversation with someone if they are having a bad day. I don’t think I’ve seen Jackson a day when he hasn’t been ready to learn something. For these reasons I think he would be a great pick for student of the month.
I have Kambri in German I this year. She has done a fantastic job so far. She comes in with a positive attitude. I appreciate that she is willing to ask questions and is an active participant in class. She gets along well and works well with others in class. She sets a great example to other students. Keep up the good work, Kambri!
I had Micah last semester in Intro to Computer Concepts and again this semester in Advanced Computer Concepts. Micah is a very conscientious student who works hard at being successful. He is willing to help those around him and treats both staff and students with respect.
Reid is a positive, funny, engaging presence in my classroom and extracurriculars. He is helpful to others when needed, engages with peers and with me, and is a lot of fun but willing to be serious when the situation calls for it. I appreciate having him as a student!
Madelyn earns good grades, has a positive attitude and is hard-working: all qualities of a good student. She comes to class and pays attention and helps me and others out. Madelyn is very disciplined and her time management skills are a factor in why she is a worthy nominee for student of the month.

Cameron has been stepping up both during and outside of band class this year. She is always willing to help with things like moving equipment or sorting and distributing music, and she consistently works hard in class and improves herself. Cameron is kind and positive to other students, regardless of whether they are close or not. I appreciate being her teacher!
Joseph is the single hardest worker in the Woods shop. His attendance in Woods II is impeccable. He not only builds his project but when needed assists other students when they have questions. He never has to be told or asked to put equipment away and he is always first to clean up when work time has ended.
Melany is a light in our classroom, she always has a positive attitude. I recently read an essay about how she wants to be a surgeon and is applying to ACC to start making that happen and I was inspired by her mature forward thinking. I’m excited to see where her hard work takes her.
Rachelle comes to class each and every day ready to learn. She is enthusiastic about the material covered in human anatomy and physiology. She asks appropriate questions and truly wants to learn more about the systems of the body. I consider her a leader during lecture and lab activities. She is interested in studying the sciences in college next year. I encourage Rachelle to keep up the good work. Learn as much as you can…you won’t regret it!
Brent has been in my p.e. class this semester and he has been more than helpful with equipment set up and take down each day. At the beginning of the semester, he helped to take equipment to the softball field each day and also brought it back into the school. Recently, he has helped to set up the volleyball nets each day for class and is always willing to get equipment that I need out of the locker room. He has been a great help to me this semester and I am grateful that I have been able to have him in class.
Emma has done an excellent job so far in German. I am impressed at her willingness to always try and use the German we are learning. She works well with others in class and will ask questions when needed. Keep up the good work, Emma!

He does a nice job focusing on the task at hand and asks questions when he doesn’t understand. I have noticed a tremendous improvement since I had him in class 2 years ago as a freshman. His growth is worthy of recognition. I encourage Ryan to continue to work hard and learn as much as he can.

October Students of the Month!
I am nominating Tony Maciczak for student of the month for several reasons. The first of which is his positive attitude. He comes to class every day with a positive attitude towards not only the subject matter but also his classmates. He is genuinely kind and respectful towards everyone in our class. He includes all of his classmates in discussions before our class starts ensuring that no one is left sitting alone. Another reason that I’m nominating Tony is his work ethic. He comes to class prepared to discuss the material, contributing to his group’s discussion as well as our whole class discussion. When working independently on a piece of writing, he takes constructive criticism well and consistently works to improve his skills.
Makayla is a student in my personal fitness class and I am always amazed by her positive attitude and willingness to work hard in class. Makayla always tries her hardest and has even stepped in as the teacher during warm-ups while I was talking to another staff member. I’m impressed with Makayla’s work ethic and leadership skills in class.
Rachael has done an outstanding job in class so far this school year. I am lucky to have her in both IVCC Dual Credit BIO 1001 AND Human Anatomy & Physiology. Rachael is challenging herself academically during her senior year. I applaud her for this. Rachael always comes to class with a positive attitude. She asks appropriate questions and loves to learn. I consider her a leader during both lecture and laboratory exercises. I encourage Rachael to continue to work hard and learn as much as she can. Keep up the good work, Rachael!

Through his rigorous work ethic, he has made tremendous strides in the short amount of time we have had in class this year. I highly recommend Mack for student of the month!
Natasha is an extremely hard working student. She comes in and gets extra help when she doesn’t understand things. She is determined to work hard and excel in her classes. She is very kind and helps other students when they don’t understand key materials in class. She always volunteers to help out as well.

She asks questions that demonstrate critical thinking skills and is willing to help her classmates when they don’t understand. I observe her going above and beyond each and every class period. Keep up the good work, Isabella!
Dominic is the student who just “does what needs doing”. He has taken it upon himself to make sure that the band room is running smoothly both during class and during outside events. Dominic talks to everyone, helping younger students and providing a positive role model. He works hard on his individual responsibilities as well.
