Calling out Darion Mzhickteno who received a Pawsitive call home from Ms. Rueger. Darion was a standout in his 5th grade class for helping a teacher who was experiencing computer hiccups. Although there were many failed attempts to remedy the situation, Darion chose to miss out on the fun centers and continue to work on the problem until he found the solution to the tech problem and had things up and running. Such perseverance!!! Great job Darion!!
