Cornell Grade School names latest students of the month

Gavyn Bowman and Henry Nelson were recognized for their respective efforts at Cornell Grade School by being named as Students of the Month for January.

Gavyn Bowman is recognized as student of the month for kindergarten through fourth grade. Gavyn, son of Lauren Scheufler of Cornell, was nominated by his teacher Ashley Follmer.

Henry Nelson was selected as student of the month for the fifth through eighth grades. Karen Austin was the nominating teacher for Henry, who is a son of Kendra Nelson.

Gavyn and Henry were presented with certificates, a pin and Casey's General Store gift cards at an all-school assembly.

Each month the grade school selects two students, one from kindergarten through fourth grades, and one from fifth through eighth grades, who best demonstrate a good attitude, respect for others, dependability, hard work, volunteerism, honesty, trustworthiness and leadership.

Each student receives a Student of the Month certificate and will have their picture on display in the main hallway at Cornell Grade School.
