October Students of the Month
- Published: November 28, 2019
Each month, McKinney Middle School and Yellow Springs High School acknowledge one student from each grade who has shown exemplary work as a student, classmate and citizen of the school. The schools have selected the following six students, who best modeled these efforts in the month of October:
Seventh grade — Liliana Herzog: “Liliana is so inquisitive, kind, helpful and funny. She is always the first person to ask questions, share insight or strike up a conversation. Her ability to connect with peers and adults in the building is truly remarkable.” —Cameron McCoy
Eighth grade — Chloe Bayard: “Chloe is one of the most hardworking students. I have never seen her give up and she is always patient and respectful with teachers and peers. She also comes in for tutoring almost every week.”
—Courtney O’Connor
Ninth grade — Ahsha Jackson: “Ahsha is extremely hardworking and conscientious. She always turns in assignments on time and takes pride in the quality of her work. Most importantly, she goes out of her way to help classmates complete assignments, even tutoring one-on-one during class time. She is patient, kind and a joy to have in class.” —Desiree Nickell
10th grade — Amelia Hurley: “Amelia brings a light into our school that has a positive effect on both staff and students. She is always willing to work alongside other students who are having difficulty with a concept and helps to ensure their success through her own mastery of a concept or skill.” —Dave Johnston
11th grade — Craig Arrington: “Craig is consistently turning assignments in and performing at a high level on his assignments. I have seen tremendous growth and have been impressed with his academic habits this year..” —Kevin Lydy
12th grade — Robin McCoy: “Robyn is taking two physical education classes this semester, which means I see her twice a day on B days. Robyn always has a smile on her face and brings a positive attitude to anything we do. Robyn proactively seeks feedback and has a growth mindset. I can see Robyn take critical feedback and apply it in the moment almost on a daily basis. She is kind, respectful and a very hard worker. Robyn cares about herself and others and makes our shared learning community brighter!” —Kate Lohmeyer
Congratulations to all of this month’s selected students — and Go Bulldogs!
