student of the month

In april of 2017 Charlotte Seitz won student of the month at James Bowie High School. All her teachers believe she deserved to win because of her positive attitude and amazing work ethic she constantly puts in.

This semester charlotte seitz has really gotten her grades together, and gone the extra mile in classes that she struggled in a bit last semester.

"i've seen a huge difference in charlotte's grades in my class now that she's been staying after school with me for extra tutoring," chemistry teacher Amy Shan states.

In classes charlotte always has a smile on her face when working with his fellow peers and asking with her teachers.


"Winning student of the month is a big deal and i am not shocked that Charlotte won, with all the hard effort, and good attitude she has i see from her," Principle Susan Leos says.


Other people have other priorities like partys, or sports, but charlottes number one priority is school and making sure she is able to get into a good college.


"yes, school is very important," Student of the month resipient Charlotte Seitz says


Charlotte may not be involved in sports or make straight A's but with her ideal student attitude and respect for her teachers it just shows as to why she was chosen for student of the month. 


"clubs are the only extracariccular  i'm intrested in," says Seitz. 

This award goes to someone with charisma ,extra curriculars and straight a's. 

"She is very selfless, which is one of the many admirable traits about her," her algebra  teacher Madison Garza further says.


Instead of being on social media all the time. Charlotte devotes about 4 hours on homework a night and fully devotes herself to school. 

"sometimes i the homework is a lot to handle,but then i remember my goals, and the happiness ill have if i achieve them and it makes the hard work worth it," seitz says.

Charlotte has high hopes to got to college out of state somewhere in new york city, or washington state when she graduates high school in 2 years. 


"the drive i've see in charlotte lately is so amazing i cant wait to see where the future takes her," Charlotte's mother Connie Seitz says.

Charlotte Seitz is different. She Doesn't like football games and pep rallies but instead perfers to be in clubs that intrest her like earth club, cave club, and science club.


"Its very refreshing now a days to see kids that don't fit into the normal cookie cutter stereotypes of these awards win," an active PTA mom Becky Williams says.

With Charlotte winning student of the month is a real eye opener for kids who feel like they're under appreciated just because they're not on the cheer squad or quarter back on the football team.

"Liam makes an excellent asset to the list of names under 'Student of the Month' we have here at Bowie," priciple Leos states.
