Students of the month for January at Prairie High
School are Michelle Geis, left and Kelsey Marker. Michelle has really
proven her desire to succeed and excel. She works hard to get her work
done and is always respectful to those around her. Michelle has the potential
to “go places” with her work ethic. Because of her outstanding organizational
skills and excellent work ethic, she was given the opportunity to work
at a local business after school. Kelsey is a remarkable young lady dedicated
to her academics. She is goal-oriented and self-motivated. During longer
projects and assignments she has shown an ability to time manage. She willingly
takes on extra responsibilities/work for a class if needed. She is an excellent
example of what it means to be an academically dedicated student.
