Student of the Month

Willie is the 8th grade boy Student of the Month at Hunter Junior High School. He wants a newspaper article or something written about him. Since I don't have access to a newspaper, he will have to settle for a blog posting. I would say that he is Student of the Month because he is a very good student -- he attends school every day, he pays attention in class, he is respectful of teachers and students, he gets good grades, he is courteous and polite, he is good-looking, and his mother loves him. The people at the school probably don't know that he is close to getting his Eagle Scout, and he is the best uncle on the planet. They may not know about his sweet basketball skills and his international team members who play some pretty intense games in the driveway. I must say that I am very proud of my Student of the Month! His reward for such an honor is lunch from McDonalds on Thursday -- in the school library. (He thinks someone goes to pick it up and brings it back to the school.)
