Staples High School Names 7 Students Of The Month For March

WESTPORT, CT — Seven Staples High School students have been named Students of the Month for March, Principal Stafford Thomas Jr. announced.

The students were honored for helping to "make Staples High School a welcoming place for their peers and teachers alike," and they are considered the "glue" that helps make Staples a special place.

"Students of the month are nominated by their teachers, who are asked to think of those students who come to school regularly, are friendly to the staff and to fellow students, and make positive contributions in class as well as the Staples community," officials said. "In short, these students are all-around good citizens of our school."

The seven students to receive the honor for March are:

Moses Beary- Grade 9
Marley Brown- Grade 10
Gianna Amatuzzi- Grade 9
Camryn Zukowski– Grade 12
Sophie Hekmat- Grade 11
Quinn Mcmahon – Grade 12
Maggie Montoya – Grade 9

The students were recognized for being kind, cheerful, hard-working and trustworthy, among other positive traits.

"Students of the Month are not necessarily star athletes, high honor students, or lead performers, and even if they are, this award recognizes the positive attitude they bring to school every day in making Staples High School a genial place in which to learn and teach," officials said.
