Every student has the chance to earn the honor of being named "Student of the Week" at least once during the school year, either for being an excellent example for others, doing something impressive, or for showing improvement.
The student of the week has the opportunity to bring in photos/artifacts to share that help inform the class about his/her culture and family traditions. These may be displayed in the classroom for the week, or they may be taken home, it is the decision of the Student of the Week.
Each Student of the Week will receive a certificate and pencil to commemorate the honor.
