Student of the Month

In September of 2016 freshman Liam Connally won student of the month at James bowie high school, because the staff thought he deserved it because of his high effort. 
    Liam may not   
"Liam puts in so much effort toward his school work," biology teacher Randall Smith said.
In classes it is no lie Liam always has a smile on his face when working with his fellow peers and asking with his teachers.
"Winning student of the month is a big deal and i am not shocked that Liam won, with all the hard effort, and good attitude he has i see from him," Principle Susan Leos says.
Other people have other priorities like sports, or hobbys, but liams number one priority is school. 
"yes, school is very important," Liam Connally said. 
Liam may not be involved in extra curricular activities or make straight A's but with his ideal student attitude and respect for his teachers it just shows as to why he was chosen for student of the month. 
"im not really involved much in extra activities," says Liam. He prefers to just primarily focus on his school work.
" Liam is different, a good different," Algebra teacher Samuel Garza says.
Other people may think this award belongs to someone with more charisma ,extra curriculars and straight a's. How ever thats just a silly stereotype that was given long ago. Now principles and staff are starting to see the other qualities in students that make them stand out. Liam Connally is different to his fellow piers. 
"He tends to be his own individual, which is one of the many admirable traits about him," his algebra  teacher Samuel Garza further says.
Instead of following the new trends and being on social media all the time. Liam devotes about 3-4 hours on home work a night and fully devotes himself to school. One day he has high hopes to got to college when he graduates high school in 4 years. 
Liam Connally is different. He Doesn't like football games, he doesn't enjoy pep rallies  and prefers to focus on the future of his life that matters.
"Its very refreshing now a days to see kids that don't fit into the normal cookie cutter stereotypes of these awards win," Sarah Williams a active PTA mom says.
With Liam winning student of the month it really showed prominent diversity and change of stereotypes in staff given awards. "Liam makes an excellent asset to the list of names under Student of the month," principle Susan Leos of Bowie High School says.
