STUDENT OF THE MONTH STORY

STUDENT OF THE MONTH STORY

In the month of March at Bowie High School Mia Barbosa won the Student of the Month Award because she worked hard and made herself know, her intense studying and her good grades helped her win this award.

            Barbosa didn’t think that she deserved the award and was extremely excited to win it. “I know other people who deserve it as well, Eliana Lynch (the $wagmama) has also won this award. I won the defense award in soccer, but nothing this exciting has ever happened to me before.” Barbosa exclaimed smiling.

However, Mia knew in her heart that she definitely deserved this award. “I put a lot of time and effort into my school work.” Mia explained.

            Many people were very happy for Barbosa. “My parents are very proud and very glad. So is my dog.” Said Mia.

Her classes and teachers were also responsible in her success. “ The way my teachers taught was very helpful, English and Biology helped me, Mr. Flick and Mr. Reeves were the teachers who nominated me for this award as well.” Barbosa stated.

            Ever since Barbosa won the award, life has been a little different for her. “My friends think it’s amazing and I have gotten special attention from others.” Mia admitted shyly.

            Mia also talked about what she planned to exceed in her near and far future. “I think that winning this award will help my future, I want to be part of the Who’s Who award when I graduate, and I think that this award will look good on job applications.” Barbosa replied.

            Even thought she has gotten major popularity from this experience, Barbosa is always happy to be at school for all the right reasons. “I like seeing my friends and getting an education.” Barbosa said smiling.
