Students of the Month (January Winners)

Amber Bachmann has been selected because she has been both dependable and thoughtful. When asked to do a task that needs follow through, she is top of the list! Amber is very responsible and doesn’t take advantage of that trust. She is thoughtful and cares about her classmates as well. When a student had been out for a week due to illness, she suggested we write that we miss them on the board and send them a picture of the class. Truly a great student and person! Congratulations, Amber!

Matthew Cannon has been invaluable as a peer tutor. He's always on time and dependable. Matthew takes the time to work with each student to learn more about how he can best support them. Being flexible and understanding are strengths that he shows during each tutoring session in our school. The one-on-one time that students receive, because of his dedication, has made such a positive impact. Matthew also demonstrates his work ethic by being one of the first to pass a certification test this semester. Our school is very grateful for the time Matthew offers the staff and students here at CECP!
