Mr. Boehm does a lot for his students and he is really helpful. He helped me with an essay and I know he wouldn't hesitate to help anyone else.
Lily Hanson – Nominated by Mrs. Maki
I am nominating Lily for student of the week because she has been doing really well in chemistry so far. She is always present and on time, works hard, and has been showing wonderful lab skills. Congrats Lily!

Congratulations to our 1st Students and Staff of the Week for the 23-24 School Year:
Mr. Backstrom – Nominated by Ethan Moody
I think Mr. Backstrom should be Staff of the Week because every day he will make these funny conversations with the class to pretty much make our mornings better. He goes through the assignment with us and gives us the option to continue at home if desired. And while we are reading a story in our textbooks, he makes it more fun, and entertaining to read. Also he normally will give Bluestreak pride tickets to students who volunteer to read a section, giving us encouragement to read for the class out loud.
Destiny Schmitz – Nominated by Mrs. Fleming
Destiny is having a great start to the school year. She is a really busy person, but she maintains balance between her schoolwork, extracurricular activities, friends, and family responsibilities. Keep up the good work Destiny.
Evan Rajala – Nominated by Mr. Boehm (not pictured)
Evan knows that being a quality student means pursuing knowledge. It is easy to see his academic goals, and very fun to have meaningful conversation with him. I enjoy having Evan in class, and I look forward to enjoying the rest of the year with him. Evan, Mr. Boehm will always be excited for academic conversations with you.
