Our final Student of the Month for the 2013-14 school year is Class 0A student Natividad Nunez.  She was nominated by her teacher for three reasons:

1. She got a higher score on the Best Plus Test.

2. She’s a responsible student.

3. She just got a certificate from the University of the State of New York Education Department for School Attendants and Monitors.

4. She received certification from the New York City Department of Education as a School Bus Escort

5. She received certification in Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR from the American Red Cross.

6. She completed a Wheelchair and Occupant Restraint System Training and a Workplace Bloodborne Pathogens Training in May.

7. She got a job as a school bus attendant!

And she’s only been in the United States for 10 months!

Way to go, Natividad!
