Cassidy was chosen as scientist of the month at her school for January!
This was announced during community meeting. That is a weekly gathering of the whole school to hear updates, celebrate birthdays, show recognition, and learn about upcoming events. She received a plushie in the shape of a tardigrade.
From her teacher:
When I think about the January scientist of the month, the first word that comes to mind is thoughtful. She’s driven, an awesome student and an extremely hard worker, but more than that, she’s exceptionally thoughtful. In class, she’s engaged and engaging— there's a particular expression of realization or epiphany that I associate with her in class. She thinks deeply about science and it’s so much fun to see that rewarded when she has these moments of putting it all together. Students recently wrote a lab report and I was so impressed by the quality of this student’s work–it, of course, contained an incredibly thoughtful analysis that left no stone unturned. But it also managed to be humorous and engaging–exactly how this student shows up to class. She’s interested in anything and everything–often arriving early to class to read a book. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her with the same book twice (most recently I saw her with a book on animal behavior). For so many reasons, I’m so thrilled to announce that the January scientist of the month is Cassidy Smith.
