Nerd of the Week 

August 18, 2025

Now that we are up and rolling with the school year, we are already starting to learn your work patterns and are seeing your strengths shine through! This week, a student who really impressed me was sophomore Amethyst Phillips. Amethyst not only started the school year off getting ahead in all classes in week 1, she has also shown tremendous perseverance and grace while mourning the loss of her father who passed last week. (Please continue to keep Amethyst and her family in your thoughts during this difficult time). In her spare time, Amethyst is an avid dancer and actor. After graduation, she plans to pursue a dual career in performing arts while also studying to become a licensed therapist. If this girl sets her mind to something, she will absolutely follow through. We all know that sometimes life can throw us some tough obstacles, but this young lady will no doubt continue her climb. Keep up the outstanding work, sweet girl!
