"It is a rare person who comes along and raises the standards of excellence, who captures the hearts of many, and inspires others, by their determination to succeed."
This was the quote on the certificates of the students honored at the Breakfast of Champions. The Breakfast of Champions is a program that was started about 7 years ago and is sponsored by State Farm.
The purpose of it is to recognize and distinguish students that have demonstrated behaviors and actions that serve as positive examples for the student body.
At the end of March, students are nominated by a teacher, and then invitations are sent to parents in early April. The students do not know which teacher nominated them until the morning of the Breakfast of Champions.
This year’s Breakfast of Champions was held on Friday, May 2nd. The students who received awards from their teachers were: Daniel Boudeman, Maggie Camden, Ashli Close, Alexa Curry, Karri Garrison, Garrett Gerard, Casey Haak, Bryan Henry, JustinHorrer, Ethan Humberd, Tanner Israel, Johny Lynn, Dylan Martens, Marissa Mason, Kayla McKown, Travis Page, Darwin Schultz, Tiffany Tackett,Mykel Toliver, Whittney Troyer, Aaron Ware, Mike Wheet, Jessica Whitfield, and Zachary Williams.
A special thanks to Mr. Thurman, Ms. McCartney, Mr. Lootens, Mrs. Barton, Mrs. Judy Williams, and Mary Idleman for their help in this years Breakfast of Champions.
