"Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself."- John Dewey
STUDENT OF THE WEEK
This week, we’re excited to recognize Bo Owen Tabraham, a 1st-grade student at Canton ISD in Ms. Petree’s class as our CISD Student of the Week. Bo Owen is the son of Robert and Bailey Tabraham.
Bo Owen’s favorite subject is the library. Outside of school, he enjoys collecting keychains and running. Bo Owen wants to become a dentist when he grows up! An interesting fact about Bo Owen is that he has a sister, two dogs, and a fish named Sheldon.
Mrs. Wiley shares that Bo Owen "is eager to learn, shows respect and responsibility daily, and is always there to be a kind or helping friend to those in need." Congratulations Bo Owen on being our Canton ISD Student of the Week.
