TCHS Students of the Week
By Erin Cassidy
This week Tucker County High School again recognizes the dedicated and hardworking students throughout the school. The students that are being chosen for Students of the Week are repeatedly working as hard as they can, have an outstanding attitude, demonstrate school pride, and never fail to reach the expectations of their administrators.
This week TCHS Students of the Week include Hannah Hardy, Kyleigh Barrett, Eric Lawrence, Isaac Quattro and Jaden Stanley, Hannah Hardy, a freshman, was nominated for being very respectful, staying on task all through class, and for always working to the best of her ability. Kyleigh Barrett and Eric Lawrence, both juniors, were selected for demonstrating school pride. Isaac Quattro is a sophomore and was chosen for always wanting to be a leader and helping other students. Freshman Jaden Stanley was nominated for getting his second semester off to a great start.
Each week the teachers of Tucker County High School nominate students who have not only gone above and beyond academic and behavioral expectations but also exceed them. These students are to be commended for exemplifying the principles of Mountain Lion CARE: courtesy, attitude, responsibility, and engagement.
