Shining the spotlight on Student of the Week freshman Maxin A! Maxin was nominated by Mrs. Blank because ‘Maxin always tries to do his best in English. He is attentive and asks questions. He gets his work done on time. He asks questions pertinent to the discussion we're having in class. Additionally, Maxin spent time after school working on the 9th-grade float.

They made gameday predictions and learned about the history of the big game.
