STUDENT OF THE MONTH: Arianna Martinez Arianna Martinez, daughter of Kylie and Miguel Martinez, was also chosen from the elementary. “Arianna is a great example of what responsibility looks like.

I know that I can always depend on her for any task, big or small!” explained Miss Wangler, Arianna’s teacher. Arianna prides herself in being responsible. She feels it is important to be responsible “so my parents, teachers, and adults can trust me and depend on me.” Her advice to others on the importance of being responsible is “People will trust you and depend on you and you will be given more tasks if you are responsible.” Arianna comes to school so she can learn new things and see her friends.
