Shoutout to April’s Stars! Student & Teacher of the Month Recognized by the Board
1ST GRADE - Zachary Herring
Zachary Herring is a walking smile. Every morning, he has the very best attitude and is genuinely glad to see his teachers and his peers. His excitement for school is contagious, and his consistent enthusiasm is something the world needs more of. Zachary is a diligent student and keeps working hard when subjects or assignments get tough. From crocodile adventures, to his pet catfish named Whiskers, his love of life and sharing his experiences with us through the art of storytelling is something we both look forward to everyday. We both have really enjoyed having this special young man in first grade this year. He has a piece of both of our hearts. Congratulations, Zachary!
