PCES recognizes September Students of the Month

GUILFORD — Nine pupils in grades 5-8 at Piscataquis Community Elementary School are the first Students of the Month for the 2019-20 academic year. The nine September honorees were presented with certificates in front of their peers and teachers during an assembly in the cafeteria to start the day on Friday, Sept. 27.

Students of the Month are selected by their teachers for criteria such as outstanding citizenship and academic performance. Principal Anita Wright told the audience that some of this month’s recognition recipients are always cheerful, go out of their way to be helpful, are hard working, come to school every day with a smile and more.

The nine newest Students of the Month at PCES are fifth-graders Chase Lander and Haylee Marshall, Violet Bolduc and Caleb McKusick representing grade 6; grade 7 students Shyann Dever and Devan Pelkey; and eighth-graders Dominic Cookson, Chy-Leigh Duncan and Emily Easler.
