She always comes into the classroom every morning, with a smile on her face (behind the mask). She does an amazing job of participating in classroom lessons. Always willing to answer questions and interact with those around her. She is a very good friend and always willing to share and help others out whether it is in any subject or just someone to talk to . Joei is a very hard worker and always very kind to anyone. I am so grateful to have Joei as part of my class this year.. Keep up the amazing work Joei and keep being that amazing student and person you are.”
Joei’s favorite part of school is music because she likes singing! Her favorite song is “Deck the Halls.” She also likes to solve equations in math class. At home, Joei enjoys sledding outside.

Aubree was chosen for November student of the month. Her teacher, Mrs. Bement says, “Aubree is a wonderful student to have in class. She never complains about any of the work that she has to do and always has a positive attitude in all that she does. She always gives 110% effort and has made great gains throughout the school year already. She encourages others in a quiet manner and proves to be a great example herself by being a good listener, raising her hand, not talking when the teacher is talking, etc. I am very proud of all of your successes Aubree and look forward to all that you will accomplish the rest of this school year and the years to come. Keep on being the amazing student that you are!!!”
Aubree’s favorite part of school is recess. She likes swinging with her friends. She really likes math too. At home, Aubree likes to play with her baby sister. They play with babies together. Aubree is really looking forward to sledding this winter. Her favorite food is cheese pizza. Her favorite book is the Peppa Pig books. Aubree can do back flips on the trampoline!
Way to go, Aubree! You are amazing!!
