CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR DISCOVERY DIFFERENCE MAKERS!
Today we’re celebrating some truly AMAZING students! Our Discovery Difference Makers are students who have been nominated by teachers or staff for going above and beyond—showing kindness, leadership, perseverance, responsibility, compassion, and a commitment to making Discovery Intermediate a better place. These students are making a difference through their actions, their attitudes, and the way they treat others.
Congratulations Taryn Oberle, Kate Newton, Kable Zogleman, Emersyn Hayden, Chris Sutton, Jade Ebhodaghe, Hannah Herrington, Deklin Haney, Rae'Lyn Lyons, Reid McAtee, and Elliot Stover.
