Below are the individuals who have been chosen and what others have written about them. DECEMBER MUSTANGS OF THE MONTH:
Grade 6:
Thomas Geer:
Tommy was very kind to classmates and did not give into peer pressure.
Tommy is a kind hearted young man. He has shown positive progression in his academics in the short time here at VMMS!!! Tommy is friendly and funny and is well liked by his teachers and peers.
Tommy always does the right thing , works hard and respects his peers which is not so easy for Tommy. He listens well and eagerly shares his thoughts in class discussions. I”m very proud of Tommy for how he handles himself in some tough situations.
Since the first day of school, Tommy has always shown his teachers and peers respect and compassion. Tommy has a passion for learning and a strong work ethic. Tommy is a positive role model for his classmates with his Kind demeanor. I truly believe That Tommy is deserving of this award!!
Grade 7:
Luke Williams:
Luke did a great job collecting food for the families in need this holiday season. He goes over and above for all his classmates.
Grade 8:
Sebastian Shiley:
Sebastian has shown great maturity over the last few months. He is responsible, reliable and a hard worker. Further, he is the first one to help out a classmate when needed and always lends a helping hand during clean-up. Recently he even went out of his way to get a classmate setup with a project as the student had been absent.
Support Staff:
Sue Civello
Sue is a great support for everyone! She went above and beyond to help out with the Veterans Day celebration when she originally said she could not assist this year because of many personal reasons, but she assisted anyway. Sue has been a great help in the guidance department and for the main office and admin staff. She has been asked to create many projects that are outside of her job description and she does it flawlessly. I believe she should be recognized for all of her efforts
Teacher:
Jen Wnuk
Mrs. Wnuk goes above and beyond for all students and staff members. She always does the right things and sets a great example for students. One day there was a spill in the hallway and several staff members walked by the spill without offering to clean it up or call a custodian. Mrs. Wnuk was the one to direct students around the spill to ensure no one slipped and informed the main office to ensure they contacted the custodians. She always goes the extra mile even if it takes extra time out of her prep period.
