She loves to challenge herself academically, but she is motivated by learning, not by grades. She is never afraid to ask questions. She accepts instruction. She is an outstanding Spanish student. She is a talented artist as well. Ngoclam is open-minded, kind, helpful, friendly, and humble. She is genuine and comfortable with who she is. She does not seek the limelight. She embodies all the qualities that we need for our future." -Diane Mulroney, Spanish teacher, Notre Dame Academy "Kayla is a student that is actively involved with school and in her community. She was a student ambassador, where she worked solely with incoming students, participating in hosting guided tours, meeting with donors, and being a support to students who were making a decision to enroll. Kayla is also a part of the Milwaukee Urban League program, where she devotes most of her time to prepare for her future by showcasing flexibility and determination to her secondary education. Kayla works extremely hard and manages to keep her academics first. Kayla has this leadership spark about her, and naturally others gravitate around her because of her aura. We are proud to call you a Bishop, Kayla." -Melissa Hoeppner, counselor, Messmer High School Our poll runs this week from Monday, Jan. 27, until noon Thursday, Jan. 30. We will announce the winner online Jan. 31 at and and in our newspapers on Sunday, Feb. 2. Happy voting! Do you work with youth and know someone who should be Student of the Week?
