Student of the Week

Superintendent's Message

“Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.” — Fred Rogers
 
Weeks like this past one are difficult reminders of the preciousness of life. This past week, our school family, community, and county have felt extreme heartache. Heartache for those lost, those injured, and their families who are struggling with these tragedies. I know we all have prayed for comfort for everyone involved and will continue to do so.

STUDENT OF THE WEEK

Congratulations to Shane Kuhn, a first grader in Mrs. Petree’s class, on being named Canton Elementary School’s Student of the Week!
 
Shane is the son of Robert and Micah Kuhn and has been a Canton Eagle since kindergarten. His favorite subject is math, he loves reading in his free time, and when he grows up, he wants to be a fisherman. He has a brother, a sister, and two dogs.
 
Mrs. Wiley describes Shane as “a hardworking student who is always eager to follow directions, lend a helping hand, and show kindness to others. He gives his best effort in everything he does. Shane lives out our Eagle Pillars of Responsibility, Integrity, Service, and Excellence every day.”
