Kleb Updates: Week of September 4, 2023

 

This week’s Staff Member Spotlight is Ms. Elena Cosme! 

Ms. Cosme goes above and beyond for their students. She provides consistent and clear communication to parents and makes resources available and easy to find on Schoology. She posts grades in a timely manner and makes students feel loved, respected and appreciated.
 

 

Bearcubs of the Week:

6th Grade

Ellery Shurtliff- Ellery is an extremely hard worker and is always very kind and respectful to everyone. She contributes to class discussion with very thoughtful answers and always listens intently when others speak.

(Richard) "Liam" Broderick- Liam is a hard-working student who speaks up in class, helps his peers, and stays on top of his work. He went out of his way to contact me when he was out sick and ask what he could do at home, so he didn't fall behind.

7th grade

Kate Ihalamullage- Kate always gets her work done and pays attention during lessons, and I regularly see her helping her peers when they are struggling to understand something.

Britton Hambor- Britton is always extremely respectful when speaking with adults and is very conscientious about getting his work done, even when his friends are trying to distract him. He is not afraid to ask for help when needed but he also helps his peers when he can.

8th Grade

Jameson Nunez- Jameson is a natural leader who doesn't let ego get in the way of getting a job done. She interacts positively with adults and peers. She is a joy to have in class. 

Jovanni Aranda- He has been doing amazing work in Science class along with extracurricular activities (football and band).

 

 Bearcubs Highlights:

Our 7th grade Football Teams won their games against Schindewolf on Monday night. B-Team won 18-0 and A-Team won 12-6. Our 8th Grade Bearcubs pulled out the “Broom” and continued the sweep of Schindewolf in football. Dustin Thompson scored 2 touchdowns and Pierre Stewart added another touchdown on a pass from Hagan Hess as the Bearcubs beat the T-Wolves 20-6 in the A-Game. Outstanding defensive players were Pierre Stewart, Brock McGavock, and Dresden Moore. In the 8th grade B Game, the Bearcubs blanked the T-Wolves 14-0 and scored on touchdown runs from Jonathan Murry Paz and Tony Ross. The defense was led by Arthur Rodriguez, Aidan Hernandez, and Leonaides Lopez.

 

 

Our 8th grade Volleyball Teams also beat Schindewolf this week- B-Team won 25-17 and 25-9 and A-Team won 25-6 and 25-17.
