Madison Sellers

Weber High

Madison Sellers is a Junior at Weber High school and embodies helpfulness, friendliness, and kindness. She is always eager to help her peers and goes above and beyond to ensure everyone feels welcome and supported in the library. Her warm demeanor and willingness to lend a hand make her an invaluable asset to me. She radiates a fun-loving spirit and has an infectious giggle that brightens any room.

Amanda Gois

Maria Montessori Academy

Amanda has done a very good job in my classroom with homework, vocabulary words, assignments, etc. One thing that stood out for me was Amanda’s willingness to help her fellow classmates with studying or writing down vocab words for them. For instance, a particular student was absent for the day, and we were writing down vocab words and I looked over and she has two notebooks out. She was writing the vocab words with definitions in both notebooks. I asked her why she is doing this; she replies simply because she is sick, and when she comes back she will be stressed about school work. I want it so when they come back from being sick and not worry about having to write vocab words. To me this is an awesome display of leadership. She did such a great job at leading by example that I have started to notice others in my classroom will do the same for people that are absent. It amazes me that such a small simple gesture has helped students find ways to help each other when they need it the most. She has been a light of happiness in my class.

Mina Jorgensen

North Ogden Junior High

The best people are those who do good just for the sake of doing it, and Mina is one of those people. She cares deeply about everything she does, and it shows in the quality of her work. Whenever there is a performance-based assignment, Mina goes above and beyond to be successful. She shows up memorized, prepared, and often with full costumes and comedic routines ready to go. She set an example for how to be a dedicated performer. The students and I all love watching her perform, and her work inspires others to do the same. Thank you, Mina, for being such a reliable, bright spot in the classroom!

Braden Behunin

Orion Junior High

Braden is an outstanding 8th-grade student at Orion Junior High. He excels academically and athletically. Braden works hard in all aspects of his life, by earning a 4.0 GPA, excelling in all sports, and is a great friend to all. Braden exemplifies all of Orion’s core values. Braden is kind and respectful to his peers and to the faculty and staff at school. At Orion, Braden is a Peer Tutor and loves that he gets to interact with his peers in PE. Braden is currently in the school play and is also involved in many sports (soccer being his favorite sport of all). Braden looks up to his grandpa because of how kind and thoughtful he was—he also had a great sense of humor and Braden always appreciated that. Braden’s family, friends, and teachers at school describe Braden as being uplifting, fun, inspiring, and all around happy. Congratulations on this achievement, Braden! You are well deserving of this!
