“Don’t let yesterday take up too much of today.” — Will Rogers
Student of the Week
Congratulations to Luke Gray, our Canton ISD Student of the Week.
Luke is the son of Michael and Angela Gray. He is a 7th grader at Canton Junior High, and has been a part of Canton ISD since Kindergarten. His favorite subject is Science, and he is actively involved in Football and Student Council.
Outside of school, Luke enjoys playing flag football, hunting, and fishing. He’s also a die-hard Kansas City Chiefs fan and especially looks up to Patrick Mahomes. A fun fact about Luke is that he loves animals. He recently bought his first bearded dragon and named him Creed!
According to Mrs. McLeod:
“Luke’s teachers describe him as having a kind heart, a contagious smile, and a strong work ethic. He approaches every task with dedication and is always willing to help others. His leadership and positive attitude make him a wonderful example of what it means to show Eagle Pride every day.”
