Congratulations to Aubree Loggins for being voted the 7th grade Student of the Month for March!!! One of Aubree's teachers stated, "There is not enough room to write all of the amazing things about Aubree. She loves everyone and is always smiling. Although Aubree cannot speak with words, she works very hard to learn ways to communicate with her eyes and some gestures. Aubree loves school and is so excited to get here each day. You can't help to be humbled and inspired when you interact with Aubree. She is truly a light on this campus and I am a better person, teacher, and mom because of her presence in my classroom." #Bearcatproud
