Katelyn has demonstrated a true dedication to this program since day one. She takes on a leadership role in our classroom group discussions. She takes pride in her work and has demonstrated this is in several ways. At the start of class, she is focused on the task at hand. When working on the floor, she continually seeks feedback to improve the quality of work in her hair designs and continues to practice her techniques at home. Katelyn has a natural ability to work with others in any given situation. She was able to assist her fellow classmates in our class when we switched over to a different form of technology on the day of our first lab test. Katelyn has a wonderful way of explaining hair techniques to other girls when we are working in the lab. In addition Katelyn has a desire to learn more about our industry.

During this month, culinary kicked off a new initiative, The Loaf and Ladle Club, based on hands-on culinary events being run by students. Since the start, Nate has volunteered to work on every event we have done. He is always the first to volunteer for any position, including skills that he may not be comfortable with.

Hillary McMullen
Program: Graphic Arts
Grade: 11
School: Concord High School
I have picked Hillary McMullen for October's "Student of the Month in Graphic Arts" at the CRTC because she attacks every project with determination and desire to know the process and to get better. She understands the outcomes expected and is resourceful by efficiently researching and choosing the harder, more complex designs to complete. She listens attentively and responds well to feedback from me and her peers; accepting it as professional criticism to improve. She effortlessly demonstrates a good sense of organization skills, ready to work at all times and uses class time with purpose and drive. As this is her first quarter as a junior, and if this is an indication of her growth mindset in Graphic Arts, Hillary is on track to accomplish many great things during her time here at the CRTC.
Fun Fact: Hillary has been playing guitar for 8 years and created her first song when she was only 9 years old.

She also made a pattern game on the ipad for an extra practice activity and she made practice sheets for children that were having trouble learning patterns. Very Impressive!"
