The 7th-grade student of the month is Abby Jones.
Abby shows what it means to be a true Thunderbird. She is kind, makes sure everyone is included in activities and stays on top of her assignments. She stands above the rest for the month of October because she takes the initiative to help when she sees a need. She is very opinionated when it comes to class decisions, but her goal is always to have the best time that she can! Abby’s favorite color is blue and she has brown eyes. Her favorite class is P.E. and she loves learning about science. Abby likes gymnastics and loves to exercise. Her advice to students is to “keep up your grades and be nice to others. It’s not that hard.” Congratulations, Abby Jones!

She is a person who has made a real impression on her teachers so far this year. She is a great citizen and always respectful of those around her. She is very strong academically as well. Her work ethic is outstanding; she always gives assignments her best effort and takes responsibility for any work missed due to absences. Her teachers appreciate her thoughtful participation in class discussions, her polite manner, and her mature attitude. She is a great role model for other students and we are lucky to have her with us at GCMS. Emily loves playing softball and volleyball. She has a love for traveling and thinks baking is fun. Reading is a nice pastime for her and she loves learning new things. Her advice to students is “Stay positive, no matter what happens.” Congratulations, Emily Rutherford!
