Marley was nominated this month for the courage and kindness she extends to everyone around her. Transitioning to middle school can be a challenge, but Marley has handled her first year with grace and determination.
Marley truly embodies the meaning of Vandal Pride through her character and her commitment to making our school a more welcoming place.
Congratulations, Marley! Keep shining and leading by example.
