Luis Ponce-Cortez was nominated by Mrs. Schroetlin for November Student of the Month. Luis was nominated for many reasons, but the effort he puts toward assignments is what caused him to really stand out. Mrs. Schroetlin nominated him saying, “Luis recently transferred into my English class after being in a class for English Language Learners. In just a couple weeks, Luis has impressed me with his dedication to his own learning. He takes each assignment seriously and gives his best effort. On a recent writing assignment, he brought his work to me to check over it, and we discussed how he could improve his writing. After seeing just one example, Luis was able to identify other sentences that he could fix in his own paragraph. I am proud of Luis for putting in the effort to make himself the best student he can be.” This statement definitely puts Luis’s great attitude and drive in words. Keep up the great work Luis!
