Adrian Optimist Club Students of the Month – November

The Adrian Optimist Club is pleased to honor Students of the Month from the Miami, Ballard, and Adrian school districts.  Criteria for this honor center on outstanding academic and civic achievement and school spirit.  Staff at each of the schools makes the selection, and their decision is based on expansion of these criteria. Selection is based on the criteria, but a student stepping up to a particular task will come to play in it.  Each student is honored with a certificate of recognition from the Adrian Optimist Club and $20.00 in Adrian Chamber of Commerce “Chamber Bucks”.

The Miami Student of the Month for November is Junior, Nathan Turner.

Nathan is son of Kandice and Nathan Turner.  In school, Nathan just likes sharing with friends and passing tests.  He also enjoys family time of watching sports and eating.  Nathan says, “My grandparents inspire me because they show me how to correctly interact with people and how to be a good person.”

The Miami Staff says, “Nathan has done a great job in the classroom. He is attentive and has taken responsibility for getting his work done.  He asks thoughtful questions and gives informed answers.  He is respectful toward teachers and cares about his fellow students.  Although he is open to change, for now Nathan plans to go straight to contributing to his family.
