Kylan was chosen for Student of the Month. His teacher Mrs. Skersick says, “Kylan has always been a helpful student to everyone. He always comes to class every day prepared and ready to go with all supplies and a smile on his face. He has been doing an outstanding job of getting his assignments completed and turned in one time. He is a very good friend and has amazing conversations with his classmates and is always willing to help them out. Kylan is an outstanding reader and can have wonderful conversations about a book he is currently reading. I am so grateful to have Kylan as part of my class this year. Keep up the amazing work Kylan and keep being that outstanding student.”
Kylan’s favorite part of school is gym. He enjoys playing dodgeball and with the parachute. He says that Mrs. Skersick is the best teacher ever and he is taking care of her at school while she has a broken foot. At home, Kylan likes to play video games, go to the park with brother, and play on the Xbox 1. He can ride a bike without hands while standing on the back pegs. What a cool trick!!
Kylan, you have a heart of gold! Thanks for all your hard work!
