Congratulations to Tyson Mushitz for getting the Good News Call on this Monday morning! Tyson Mushitz was nominated for the Good News Call by our custodian, Dwight Bok. Dwight was busy picking up paper towels off the floor of the bathroom, when he noticed a student had gotten down to help him. Tyson had noticed that Dwight could use a hand and took it upon himself to get down and assist him with the clean-up. Tyson, thank you for noticing that someone needed help and for being a “happy helper” here at school. You are a great example of kindness, thoughtfulness, and helping others.
My "Magnificent Manners" example this morning is actually in the form of a Good News Call. That’s right, we have a Good News Call going out to Bryce Kahler. Bryce was nominated for the GNC by our cooks. Our cooks have noticed that Bryce tells them "Thank You" for making lunch for them every single day. He always says "Please and Thank You" to them in the lunch line and he is always so KIND to them and THANKFUL for them. Thank you, Bryce, for noticing the great meals the cooks serve us each day and for always thanking them for their hard work! Thank you for being a wonderful model of our September "Shout Out".....Magnificent Manners!!
Today’s Good News Call goes out to Lexington Spoelstra. Lexi has been a wonderful student helper for one of her classmates. She assists him in dumping his lunch tray, getting his recess items, and heading outside to recess. Each day, Lexi is observed being a student leader and assisting her classmate. Thank you, Lexi, for being a wonderful student helper and for taking time to care about your classmates. Lexi was nominated for the “Good News Call” by Mr. Johnson, Mrs. Frandsen, Mrs. Brumbaugh, and Mrs. Knecht.
Today’s Good News Call goes out to Kaylee Gallagher. Kaylee has been a wonderful Big Sister to her Kindergarten sister, Gracelyn. Gracelyn has been in a wheelchair due to an infection and Kaylee very patiently gives up countless recesses to push her sister around in the wheelchair to keep her entertained during recess time. She takes care of her little sister and makes sure she is in her classroom each morning and after each recess. She takes her role as Big Sister very seriously and treats her sister with kindness and concern. Thank you Kaylee for showing LOVE and KINDNESS to your sister. Kaylee was nominated for the Good News Call by her teacher, Mrs. Sandy DuFrain.
