Each week, our teachers nominate students to receive a Friday Firebird Award. This award is given to students who set a wonderful example by demonstrating The Eight Keys of Excellence!
Brexly M., a 6th grader, was recognized as a Firebird Award winner! Mrs. Sonnen shared, "Brexly works hard in math every day. She perseveres through any challenge and never gives up. When she makes a mistake, she doesn’t let it get her down; she focuses and tries again! She takes ‘Ownership’ of her learning by asking for help when she needs it. I love the positive attitude she brings to class every day. She makes our class brighter just by being a part of it! Great job, Brexly!"
Layla C., a 7th grader, was recognized as a Firebird Award winner! Mr. Baumgartner shared, "Layla has demonstrated ‘Ownership’ in math. I appreciate that Layla tries her best every day, and because of her dedication, she is showing considerable growth in math. Great job, Layla!"
Caroline G., a 7th grader, was recognized as a Firebird Award winner! Mrs. Keenan shared, "Caroline brings energy to math class and is an active participant. She takes notes, asks questions, volunteers to help, and seeks out help when needed. She is working hard to understand math, and her efforts are paying off! Congratulations, Caroline!"
Lilli W., an 8th grader, was recognized as a Firebird Award winner! Mrs. Antal shared, "Joining an honors class as an 8th grader and tackling 9th-grade math content is no small feat. Lilli has taken on this challenge with determination, a positive attitude, and a willingness to grow. She is humble enough to ask for help when she needs it and takes the initiative to come in before school for extra practice. Her perseverance and commitment to doing her best are truly admirable! I hope you know how proud I am of you and how much I appreciate the effort you are putting in! Congrats, Lilli!"

Math is challenging, and he always rises to the challenge! I am so lucky to have him in math class, and he is a great WCA Firebird! Congratulations, Cayden!"
