She's a very intelligent student and on top of that she's an extremely hard worker. She is a student who is consistently doing the right thing regardless of who is watching or what her classmates are doing. I have no doubt that she will continue to work hard and improve. All of her great characteristics and qualities will lead her to success in the future with whatever it is she chooses to pursue!

He does a good job of keeping up with his school work and getting caught up in a timely manner if he is absent from school. Carter is also kind and respectful. His positive attitude is wonderful to have in class. He is always willing to help his fellow classmates if they are confused. Carter is a great example of Bulldog PRIDE.
Mey Wikoff
Mey is a wonderful young lady! Her cheery disposition and positive attitude towards being the best she can be sets her apart and makes everyone that comes in contact with her feel welcome and accepted. I love that she is willing to take on a challenge without hesitation and that she recognizes that what she puts into something is what she will get out. This is a lesson that has served her well and will continue propelling her towards success!
7th Grade
Peyton Beck
It has been a pleasure teaching Peyton Beck this year. Peyton arrives to first period bright-eyed and ready to learn! When no one else wants to volunteer to read or give an answer or solution, she is more than willing. Peyton displays the character that defines the Wayne Cheramy award. She does her work with her best effort and is always helpful to others. I have seen her help other students stay organized or prepare for a test. Peyton is a true leader but not in a boastful or controlling manner. I love her smile and fun personality. Thank you for being an awesome person!
Collins Christner
Collins always has the most positive attitude and best outlook on each day. She is always willing to answer questions, give input, help out and to be an overall leader in the class. I have had the privilege of having Collins for two years and she has continued to be a joy each and every day. Collins has become more involved this year as a part of student council and is a prime example of what we want students to strive for at BMS.
Alejandro Lee
I have taught Jando for 2 years. He has made incredible growth over this last year. He is taking his education seriously and taking accountabiity for his own success. He is working hard to focus in class and asks questions when he needs help. Additionally outside of school he wrestles. He has done a great job keeping up with his responsibilities in and out of school. Keep working hard Jando! I am very proud of you!
Leilani Lindell
Leilani is such a great example of what the Wayne Cheramy is all about. She is responsible, respectful, kind, and has a great work ethic in the classroom. I appreciate her leadership as Leilani consistently completes assignments on time, comes prepared for class, and is always willing to help other students or myself without hesitation. She is a trusted leader among her peers and I can always count on her to come to class with a smile on her face, ready to take on any challenge that comes her way. Keep up the great work, Leilani! I look forward to seeing where the future takes you.
Madison Pondell
Madison is a kind hearted young lady with a very positive disposition. She is not afraid to take on a challenge. Madison will persevere! Her hard work and "can do" attitude makes her an amazing role model for her peers. Her compassion and patience makes her a friend to all who know her. I'm so lucky to have had her in class and I wish her nothing but the best in her future! Great things are coming her way!
8th Grade
Claire DeDecker
Claire is a bright student who is a leader in our classroom. She is kind and respectful to others and she is incredibly responsible and motivated in her own learning. She isn't afraid to make mistakes or ask questions, and is always willing to help others. Claire is friendly, funny, intelligent and kind and she exemplifies what it means to win this award.
Zakina Hatib
Zakina exhibits the qualities of Responsibility, Caring, Respect, and Community consistently every day. She shows up on time, ready to learn, every day at BMS. She is prepared for her classes and studies diligently. She cares for her classroom and her environment by being kind to others, keeping her area neat, and cleaning up after herself and others. She is always respectful to adults, and to her peers, even when it is difficult. If a conflict arises, she remains calm and uses her words to resolve problems and restore a sense of community. She has a thirst for knowledge and learning that is not often observed in someone so young. I have enjoyed seeing Zakina learn and grow this year. I know she will find a lot of success in high school and beyond.
Charlie Hawley
Charlie emulates the essence of the qualities we most appreciate at Middle School - being respectful, responsible, and ready. He shows respect to all of his peers and teachers with patience, being polite, and courteous. Charlie demonstrates his ability to be responsible by his top notch work ethic and attention to detail on all of his assignments. In addition, I appreciate his willingness to be ready with a positive attitude and commitment to learning. Finally, Charlie is a mature young man, with a kind heart, but also a fierce competitor. He is a wonderful role model for ALL students at BMS and in my humble opinion, he epitomizes the best in the youth of today! Congratulations, Charlie on this prestigious award!!
Kaitlyn Koch
Kaitlyn is a wonderful leader in the 8th grade class modeling how to be respectful, responsible, caring, and creating community among her peers. Kaitlyn comes to class every day smiling and happy to be there. She is never shy about asking questions for clarification or what she missed from a band lesson followed by a "thank you" after every answer. Kaitlyn goes above and beyond when it comes to including all peers in classroom activities and encouraging them to contribute. Kaitlyn is by far a superb example of what Wayne Cheramy represents and this class is lucky to have her lead them!
Faith Munday
Faith brings joy and positivity to every day with her enthusiastic love for life. Her cheerful attitude is contagious, uplifting those around them and creating a welcoming environment for peers and teachers alike. Faith is kind-hearted, always ready with a smile or a helping hand, and genuinely cares about others. She approaches each moment with optimism and warmth, making her a bright light at BMS.
