STUDENT RECOGNITION STORY

Coach Simons is not just a teacher, she is an amazing mentor. She trains track and flag football, and she always pushes us to do our best. At practice, she teaches us how to get stronger and faster, but she also teaches us to never give up Every afternoon after school, while most students go home, Coach Simons is already on the field ready to train the track and flag football teams. She pushes us to give 100% and teaches us not just how to be better athletes, but how to work hard and never give up. At track practice, she motivates us to keep going even when we feel tired. In flag football, she teaches teamwork, communication, and confidence. When we make mistakes, she helps us learn instead of putting us down. Coach Simons truly cares about her students and reminds us that school comes first. Because of her, we learn that winning is about effort, teamwork, and believing in ourselves. She doesn’t just train athletes, she helps build strong, confident leaders.
