Are you NASH Ready? Teachers have the ability to nominate students that they deem NASH Ready — meaning students who present positive behaviors that help cultivate an inclusive environment. Today, we will spin the wheel to select five NASH Ready winners. Here we go! Roll the clip…
Congratulations to Hannah Muller, Lucas Manczka, and Camden Junker — the winners of the three NASH Ready parking spots — and to Grant Huskey and Emma Neff — the Tiger gear winners. A NASH Ready member will visit each of the five winners at some point today with your prize information. If you want to know more about NASH Ready, please ask any of your teachers.
