You might hear some “unique” sounds around the district as our 5th & 6th graders received their instruments.
This is a great test of patience and endurance for our students and especially their households. Every skill has a starting point and our kids are excited to begin.

Its such a great feeling to have such positive support from community members. I walked in to find three donations for this school year. First a shout out to the Smith brothers, Craig donated electrical supplies, and Mike donated safety equipment for the Tech Ed students. Rick Newtols heard we were having Autobody class and so he donated air tools that will come in very handy. If you see them around town, thank them for supporting the future of our students.

This is recognize the area's top students and their achievement in education. The 30 minute special of the 25th annual Best of the Class airs Friday, June 13th at 9:30 pm on FOX 11.

Its been a whirlwind year, I can only post 10 pictures at a time which brings us up to this years halfway point (more to come.) Looking back it feels like we packed two years of work into one. Wishing all my students a great summer.

Senior Class Presidential Academic/Citizenship Nomination Hailey Moore - Nominated by Mr. Jason Slawinski I have nominated Hailey Moore to receive this award for her outstanding character, academic prowess, and unparalleled leadership. Hailey consistently strives to ensure greatness for the Goodman - Armstrong Creek School District. Her academic achievements include being voted a first-time member of the National Honor Society where she serves as the vice-president. In addition, she has tutored elementary students for the past two years. Her excellent leadership is constantly on display; she has served as the captain of her varsity volleyball team three years running, the president of the Healthy Youth Coalition, vice-president of the National Honor Society, and student council president. In these roles, Hailey has organized many successful fundraisers, and more importantly, organized and ran programs which gave not just material capital but inspirational motivation to the school and community. Hailey’s character is exceptional and inspirational. She is extremely dedicated towards excellence, and bringing excellence out in others, yet doing so with the utmost compassion. As a junior, Hailey assisted in co-writing a grant proposal for creating a health initiative for our community. The proposal was accepted and Hailey serves as the president for the initiative. Hailey also continually volunteers for community efforts such as blood drives and the junior firefighters. It is for these reasons, and a plethora of other outstanding qualities, I am honored and pleased to nominate Hailey for this prestigious award.

Senior Class Presidential Academic/Citizenship Nomination Minna Yang - Nominated by Mrs. Amy Wysocki Over the years, I have watched Minna take care of her friends and family time and time again, sometimes at the expense of her own wants. She is a peacekeeper, she likes those around her to be happy, she doesn’t like conflict, yet she volunteered and joined the army. From a peace keeper to a fighter in the army, Minna is always taking care of those she cares about. But she can be super fun and has some of the most creative ideas too. She has the ability to take something boring and make it fun. Minna has a spark inside her that burns brightly although she sometimes hides it. She often sees the best in others, yet like many of us, doesn’t see that in herself. She is smart and funny and has a beautiful soul. I nominate Minna because I see who she is and can’t wait to see the amazing person she becomes.

We’d like to extend a big thank you to Johnson Controls for their generous donation of 2.5lb Sentry ABC fire extinguishers for our students’ households. The goal of this donation is to help ensure that every family in the Marinette, Menominee, and Oconto counties has at least one fire extinguisher at home. Some families may have already received one during a previous distribution in 2020.

Senior Class Presidential Academic/Citizenship Nomination Krystal Moddie - Nominated by Mrs. Jamie Slawinski I have nominated Krystal Moddie to receive this award because of Krystal’s warm heart and dedication to service. When I first arrived, Krystal was in 7th grade. Each day, Krystal and a group of other girls would leave me little origami swans and sweet messages. To this day, I still have some of the notes and origami they left me in my desk. On hard days, all I had to do was open the drawer for a reminder that I was cared for and appreciated. Krystal has a quiet voice but it is backed up with big actions. She steps in to help again and again. The number of times she has helped Mr. Slawinski clean and organize his room should not be underestimated. This year she was my teacher’s assistant and she uncomplainingly helped me create resources for reading intervention, a job that was both tedious and mind-numbingly boring to be sure. But Krystal knew how much that job would lighten my load, and that desire to help drove her to stand in front of that copy machine one page at a time. I am filled with gratitude to be one of the many beneficiaries of Krystal’s kindness and help.
