Student of Month Story

On Friday afternoon, Mackenzie Martel was announced student of the month for September by the Bowie principal, Mr. Kane, at the courtyard.

            Mackenzie maintains a 4.0 GPA.

“I make straight A’s,” said Martel. “At the beginning of high school, I was caught off guard because it was so intense, but I soon learned the effort I needed to put in to make good grades.” 

Mackenzie wants to attend Rice University.

“My motivation to make good grades is I hope to attend a good school on a full scholarship,” said Martel.

In addition to her schoolwork, she also swims on the Bowie Varsity swim team.

“I’ve been swimming since I was 5, I love it, and it’s a great stress reliever,” said Mackenzie.

Martel received this award as a freshman, and now as a sophomore. She has received this award for the second time now.

“I haven’t received any negative comments from receiving this for the second time,” said Mackenzie. “I don’t have many friends, because I focus on my school work.” 

Mackenzie takes 4 AP classes, Calculus, English, Biology, and US History.

“My classes are hard, but I still work very hard in them because I know the grades will pay off,” said Martel. “Things at home are tough so I need to make good grades in order to receive a full scholarship.”

Mackenzie is part of numerous extra curricular activities at school.

“I am part of Chess club, Yearbook, and Science Olympiad,” said Martel. “I love participating in different clubs and meeting different people.”

Mackenzie hopes for others to receive this amazing award.

“Tips I have for other students are to study and work hard.”
