The January 2023 PTSA Hawk Heroes

Continuing its tradition of monthly Hawk Heroes, the PTSA awarded gift basket to this month’s Hawk Heroes, two from each grade. If students see others doing acts of kindness or other mentionable activities, please take a minute and nominate someone. Find a poster around the school and click on the QR code. (It’s also at the end of this article.)

PTSA leader Trisha Anderson said the PTSA welcomes all nominations. The best part of being a “Hawk Hero” is a front row parking spot near the main entrance. All students receive a t-shirt, gift cards, and freebies from local businesses. Seniors and juniors get a reserved parking spot for a month while sophomores and freshmen get extra gift cards.
