Eli Snodgrass demonstrated RESPECT, COURAGE, and KINDNESS–dare I say a trifecta of core values!–by publicly supporting a teacher who was trying to get students to wear face masks properly. His shout of “Just comply!” has the ring of a senior quote.
Myles Stradford, Brody Schleck, Will Freidinger and Leland Raines displayed TEAMWORK and KINDNESS when they offered to help Dean Williams set up tables for yesterday’s club fair.
Ava Chapman showed KINDNESS and RESPECT when she helped Dean Booker clean up the messy Commons at the end of the day! Thanks for the helping hand, Ava!!!
