🌟 Student Spotlight 🌟

Lily is an 8th grader at West Pender Middle School, recognized for academic excellence.

Lily works hard in class and consistently earns strong grades. Her nominator shared that she sets a high goal for herself and strives to keep all A’s as she prepares for high school and plans ahead for college. She has made the A Honor Roll throughout middle school and hopes to continue that success. She is also interested in possibly applying to Early College in the future.

Along with her academics, Lily is a thoughtful friend to the people around her. She is kind to her peers and is willing to help others when they need support.

Outside of school, Lily enjoys building LEGO flowers and book nooks, making collages, and collecting trinket boxes. Her favorite food is Chinese, and her favorite color is green. She has a dog named Luna, along with quite a few cats at home. One fun fact—Lily doesn’t like taking pictures, but her family says she’s very photogenic.

💚 Thank you, Lily, for your hard work and positive attitude at West Pender Middle School.
