The Every Student Succeeds Award recognizes students who demonstrate meaningful growth, perseverance, and a commitment to doing their best each day. This award celebrates not only academic progress, but also positive attitudes, strong character, and contributions to a supportive school community. It honors students who show that success comes through effort, determination, and a willingness to keep improving.
Marcus Phillips has been working hard in class and consistently puts forth his best effort each day, showing noticeable improvement from last year in both his focus and confidence. He approaches his learning with a positive attitude, stays on task more consistently, and demonstrates growth in maturity from last year.
Marcus is also very friendly and respectful to both classmates and teachers, which continues to make him a pleasure to have in the classroom. His growth, combined with his kindness, strong work ethic, and willingness to participate, helps create a positive and supportive learning environment.
Columbia Elementary School is proud to choose Marcus Phillips as the recipient for our Every Student Succeeds award!
