HHS November Student of the Month - Isabelle Ecklund
Isabelle Ecklund is the daughter of Randy and Ashley Ecklund.
Isabelle believes she was chosen because “I like to take initiative and get things done when they need to get done. I am a responsible student and still get all my work done while putting in my full potential, even if I had a late night doing some sort of activity such as sports practice. I seek help on assignments when needed. I treat everyone with respect and try to be as selfless as possible.”
Isabelle is a freshman at Herington, who involves herself in: FBLA, FCCLA, SALT, Volleyball and Basketball.
Mr. Hinkle believes Isabelle got student of the month because “she is super involved in the school and no matter what activity it is she is always working hard and diligent about getting things done! Isabella is also incredibly friendly to anyone and everyone she meets whether it be in the hallway or the classroom! Isabelle is very deserving of this award and is an overall great student!”
Congratulations, Isabelle!
