Middle School

FBLA and 7th Grade Gifted students attended Manufacturing Day at SEKISUI KYDEX. Students rotated through eight stations as they learned about color testing, design, fire safety, and more! They toured the facility, decorated our school logo on KYDEX plastics, participated in a fire extinguisher simulation, and heard from Pennsylvania College of Technology. Students were escorted by FBLA advisors Mrs. Long and Mr. Fegley. Thank you so much, KYDEX, for hosting our school!

🏫8th Grade SoCo Stars⭐

Joey Serafini – Science
Jeremy Weikel – History
Allison Bauman – Math
Zachary Hoagland – ELA

"I am proud to select Joey Serafini as the September SoCo Star in Science. Joey comes to class each day with a positive attitude and an eagerness to learn new things. He is kind to everyone, has the manners of a true gentleman, and treats his teachers with respect. Joey completes his work on time and with quality, and he asks questions when there is something he doesn't understand. Most importantly, although he is often a man of few words, Joey is quick to smile and has a great sense of humor, always knowing just the right moment to deliver a great joke. For all of these reasons, Joey's presence adds a lot to what makes our 4th-period Science class awesome. Congratulations, Joey!"

"It is with great pride that I recognize Jeremy Weikel as our very first SoCo Star for American History! Jeremy has demonstrated outstanding responsibility and dedication since the beginning of the school year. He has not missed a single assignment, consistently arrives to class on time, and ensures that any missed work due to an absence is completed promptly. Jeremy is not only a diligent student—he is also a kind and respectful classmate. He works well with his peers, follows classroom expectations, and brings a positive attitude to everything he does. His genuine kindness and approachable nature make him a joy to have in class. Jeremy truly brightens my day, and I couldn’t think of a more deserving student to receive this honor. Also, Jeremy has worked harder than anyone else to bring back the word "ill!" Congratulations, Jeremy! Keep up the excellent work!"

"I nominate Allison Bauman for the 8th Grade Student of the Month for September in Mathematics. Alli persistently works to achieve mastery every day in Math 8. She also brings a positive attitude to class and contributes to a strong academic school culture. Her level of respect for her teachers and peers is commendable. She sets an excellent example for her classmates and the underclassmen in the school. That is why I have chosen Alli as the 8th Grade SoCo Star for September."

"Zachary Hoagland is respectful, responsible, and a joy to have in the classroom. His positive attitude and kindness toward teachers and peers help to create a welcoming and supportive environment for everyone. His thoughtful contributions to class discussions and his genuine enthusiasm for learning make him a true role model in our ELA community!"
