OCTOBER STUDENTS OF THE MONTH
Kindergarten Nicholas
Marzan
The student of the month for
October is a child who has shown his true colors much like the beautiful leaves
of fall. He has displayed
thoughtfulness when answering questions, a quiet but concentrated look when I
am teaching, and an impressive effort to learn how to write his name in just a
couple of days. His sweet demeanor
is so enjoyable for his classmates and I to be around. May this child continue to shine! Congratulations to Nicholas Marzan.
First Grade - Anais
Conde
And so we begin the year
again, to choose one child who stands out as being a wonderful model of what it
means to be a good first grader. Well the decision was a bit difficult. I had a
few children who readily came to mind but there was one child that rose just a
bit higher. She gets to school early. She gets unpacked quickly. She diligently
completes her p.o.d notebook without a word. Then, voluntarily, assist other
classmates who are struggling to get ready. She cheerfully comes to the aid of
other classmates. I have witness this child help another tie his or her
shoelaces. She takes great pride in being a Holy Name of Jesus student. During
this harvest time of the year, this child has grown tall in the holy example of
Jesus and his Most Blessed Mother. So it is with great joy, the first grade can
offer our first fruits and present our October student of the month.....Anais
Conde.
2-1 Brandon Morejo
As the leaves change into
many beautiful shades of orange, yellow, and red, so to do the students of
2-1. They come in just about ready
to change over to second grade, but still hung on to what they needed when they
were in first. But now they are
turning all those beautiful colors and making the change to second grade. Our student of the month is new to Holy
Name School so the change might have been more difficult for him. He adjusted well to his new grade and
new school. He is well behaved and
does his work to the best of his ability.
He shows how beautifully bright and colorful change can be. We are proud of Brandon Morejo 2-1ıs
October SOM.
2-2 Imani Hatcher
As the season of autumn
arrive and the leaves start to settle on the ground, this student is also
slowly settling into second grade. Even though she has a quiet demeanor and she
is always hard at work. She is the kind of student who always keeps trying even
when she does not understand something. Every day she comes to class with a
positive attitude and with determination to do well. If she continues this way,
she will have a great school year. Congratulations, to Class 2-2ıs SOM Imani
Hatcher.
3rd Grade Jasmin
Rodriguez
This monthıs honored student
demonstrates the ideal qualities of a SOM. This student obviously cares about school, puts tremendous
effort into her work and her behavior, and is showing great progress. She always asks to know if she is doing
well in class, so sheıll get her answer now: Yes! Keep up the good work.
It is a pleasure to have you in our class as a new member of the Holy
Name family, Jasmin Rodriguez.
Fourth Grade Natalie
Vaval
In the colorful season of
autumn, it is our pleasure to recognize a student who adds beauty to our class
the way the Fall leaves add beauty to our world. This young lady has a great attitude toward her
studies. One look at her work and
you know that she takes her education seriously. She is well organized, has beautiful handwriting, earns
excellent grades and is a caring and kind person. How could we not honor a child such as her? We wish her a great year in
fourth grade and congratulate her on all she has achieved so far. She is Natalie Vaval
5-1 Bejide Long
Here we are again beginning
the school year with the student of the month. Well this student is quiet,
mild-mannered, and with a ferocious appetite for knowledge. Learning, learning,
asking questions, challenging herself, and giving more than 100%; the type of
student all teachers dream of! So as you can tell it was quite easy for Class
5-1 to have chosen Bejide Long as their Octoberıs S.O.M.

7-1 Sabrina Cushicagua
What a start to the 2008-2009
school year. Changes have taken
place in both the students and within the school. With all the changes and the
start of a new year, Octoberıs SOMis exhibiting the eagerness needed to survive
7th grade. She has come into the classroom with an attitude, not one
of disrespect, but of perseverance and dedication to herself as a student. She
gives 100% and seems to find a way to be helpful towards classmates and
teachers. I love her smile because it reminds others to be happy. I
congratulate Octoberıs SOM and hope that she continues to grow and shine
bright. Good job! Octoberıs SOM for 7-1 is Sabrina Cushicagua.
7-2 Michael Joseph.
Wow, can you believe it! It is already October and we have our
first student of the month assembly. However, this year is a bit
different. Our 7-2 students of the
month nominees will demonstrate qualities that will lead them from boys to men
in the future. This young man,
from day one, has proven to be hard working, self-motivated, and extremely
respectful. Although lately, he
has been a bit forgetful in relationship to his homework, he is generally
extremely responsible with every task given to him. What separates him from a few others is the fact that he is
passionate about succeeding in7th grade. It is a pleasure to select 7-2ıs man of the future Michael
Joseph.
8-1
Dominique Benn
This student
always has a smile on her face; she is helpful, polite and respectful to her
teachers and her peers. To top it all off, she is also an excellent student.
Her grace and quiet dignity are qualities that she carries like a cloak of
honor. These are attributes that will take her far in life. Congratulations to
Dominique Benn,
8-1ıs October
Student of the Month!!!
8-2 Emari Ward
This year itıs going to be a
challenge for all our 8th graders as they prepare for their high school
exams. Some have come in this year
ready to work and ready to take on an academic challenge while others are stuck
on vacation mode. This
year I have the privilege of having a particular student who is making strides
to improve his grades. He
took the initiative to join the tutorial program to better his chances not only
on the TACHS exam but to improve overall academically.
Sometimes
he can whine and may be a bit
annoying with all of his questions. That shows that he is thinking So, even though he may not realize it,
I admire him because he shows me that he does care about his future. So keep asking away and I will do my
best to find answers to your questions.
After all, thatıs how we gain knowledge by asking questions and
searching for answers. He has a
great sense of humor and is a pretty cool dancer especially when he does his
version of ³Chicken Noodle Soup.²
Keep up the good work and congratulations to
Emari Ward.
