Presenting this week's Students and Staff of the Week:
Mr. Casey – Nominated by Kylie Schow
Mr. Casey is a great substitute teacher and is excellent person to get advice from. He´s taught me a lot about saving and planning for my future. Even when I bug him in class he takes it with a smile. THANK YOU!!

Summer goes above and beyond to help out whenever she can. Even though I do not have her as a student this year, she has lent a helping hand without being asked. She always demonstrates what it truly means to be a Bluestreak!

Calvin has been a big help in Laser class this year. He helps other students with questions and with setting up of the Laser and other power tools.
