Where: Bowie High School

Why: why are they picked over any other student
How: how does she feel about being student of the month, dealing with stress, homework, etc. was recognized by his teachers, how is their future affected by this.
17 year-old senior, Rachel Card, was honored the Student of the Month award this month at James Bowie High School for her academic success.
"I've done an internship at a vet clinic," Card said. "I also get good grades in everything but math."
Previous students that were granted Student of the Month mentioned that they still tell their future teachers and even colleges about this award. Some colleges really look into the awards given to students.
"I was student of the month a year back and I still brag about it to my teachers and peers to this day," 16 year-old junior Yulissa Johnson said.
Students of any age or grade can win the Student of the Month award, like 14 year-old freshman Trevor Rivera. Freshman aren't typically granted this high of an award.
"I feel now that I have to live up to a higher standard," Rivera said. "I think people look at me and see an inspiration."
Some of the students have mentioned that they feel like people view them differently now that they were Student of the Month. Peers include any teachers, classmates and other staff members.
"I just think that now people know I make good grades and I'm also very kind to my teachers," Rivera said. "I had to keep up my GPA and stay involved in school to get here."
Johnson said she thinks she knows one her teachers elected her for this position last month. Students are elected by their teachers and through the AP and Principal.
"I think my freshman world geography teacher, Mr. Lauer, elected me," she said. "He and I were always good friends and got along very well in class."
Card's name was brought up by one of her teachers who said she did very well in her class.
"She made amazing grades throughout the year I had her. I don't believe she ever had anything below an 80," biology teacher Cheri Bielke said. "She was always on her best behavior and never talked unless she was asked to speak."
Other teachers like physics teacher Mike Evans, said amazing things about Card, too. They said she was always participating in their class, but never causing a ruckus.
"She was always involved in the class and got her work done before the bell," Evans said. "She always turned in her projects on time and never complained about anything or anyone."
