Students of the Week!

This week's Students of the Week are:

Eva Armbruster
Nominated by: Ms. Meyer

It is my pleasure to select Eva Armbruster for the 8th grade Student of the Week award. I had the pleasure of getting to know her in physical education and health class last semester and am fortunate to see her daily in aviator bell. When I reached out to her other teachers for comments, I received a flood of immediate responses, basically of how awesome she is! Here are just a few things of why she is so deserving of this award. Eva is vibrant, hard working, conscientious, and always willing to help her peers and adults. Eva is mature, smiles….. alot….. and has a great sense of humor. I still love our class suggestion box! Eva is an easy choice because she stands out as a leader, is pleasant, and has such a kind spirit. She continues to make a difference at SJHS and will in whatever path she chooses. Congratulations!


Ziyi (Amy) Wang

Nominated by: Mrs. Williams

Amy is a fun and interesting person who works hard in all of her classes. Amy has only lived in the U.S. for a few months and is doing all of her school work in her second language. Despite the challenges this may present, she is a successful, responsible, and determined young lady. Additionally, Amy is a positive support for her other classmates and sets a strong example for what any Sycamore Junior High student needs to do to succeed. Amy’s attitude is what stands out the most. She attacks academic and social challenges with a smile and looks forward to the risks that come with trying new things. She proves that a positive, calm attitude goes a lot further than a frustrated or discouraged one. Her work is detailed and insightful. She has a passion for trying new things and meeting new people. Amy has impressed all of her teachers this year. Congratulations Amy!
