The Hay Springs PBIS committee, along with the Hay Springs staff would like to send a huge shout-out to the following high school students for their outstanding effort through the 4th quarter! We are so proud of the work you did!!

Mr. Bounous-Social Studies:

I would like to acknowledge Breely Smith, and Toby Scherbarth. They really upped their game this quarter. 

Mrs. Beguin-English:

The student who stands out in my mind is Sadie Hanks. She didn’t have wifi for a lot of the time we were doing distance learning. However, she was never out of touch with me, continuing to email or text weekly. When she finally did get wifi at her house, she worked hard to get caught up. She’s in three of my classes and came through each of them well, even though she was at a disadvantage for quite a while. 

Ms. Lein:

Ashley T. Economics 

Spencer Video Production 

Hally Video Production 

Ashley Burrows Accounting II and Personal Finance 

Katelin Agler Computer Science and Personal Finance 

Mrs. Varvel-Music: 

I would also like to thank all the band students (and their parents who encouraged them) who took the time to practice their instruments! I am so proud of all your efforts and can’t wait to make music with you again this fall!!

Mr. Letchenberg:

Toby Scherbarth for turning in his work  in a timely manner and having quality work.  (better than ever)                                                                          

Blair Henry for her efforts.

Mr. Rotherham:

Sam H. (10th) – Sam was really a go getter this last quarter, as he was all year. Sometimes I don’t think I had submitted lessons and they were already completed and to a very high standard.

Ashley B, Hunter L, Jake R, Katie E (12th) – the Senior math class did a great job in the last part of the 3rd quarter and throughout the 4th quarter. They had a rough second half of their senior year and I think they did an admirable job doing the best they could to prepare for their next adventure.

Mr. Rotherham

Jarhett A (8th) – Math and Science: Jarhett would be the first to say math and science are not his thing. However, he worked hard all year to get better at both of them. He asked what he could do to bring up his grades and followed through, he also matured in his attitude.

Gaby T (8th) – Math and Science: Gaby worked hard all year even though math was not her thing. This last quarter she was always on top of assignments and completed them to the best of her ability.

Alexa, Gage, Abigail N (8th) – Science: These students did great work throughout the 4th quarter, keeping caught up and completing work to a high standard.

Mrs. Heiting-1st Grade:

Zobelle Henry and Milo Smith-both students completed work in a timely manner and checked in frequently to let me know their progress. They showed pride in their home learning even when things weren’t easy and persevered. Thank you for being first grade home learning rockstars!

Mrs. Vandermay-2nd Grade:

Autumn Richardson has genuinely completed all of her work and turns it in early if not on time. She responds to all the Dojo messages. Makes it to 90% of the scheduled Zooms I am so proud of her for all of her hard work!
