JAESP board members presented each winner with an award at their school and they now advance to the UAESP State competition.
Congratulations to the following:
It was a night to celebrate five years of adventure and success for students and staff at Kelsey Peak Virtual Middle School. Principal Spencer Campbell thanked Board members for their continued support and what it means to so many students learning online. Some of Mr. Campbell’s students talked about the great pride they take in attending the unique school.
Students shared their love of Kelsey Peak saying it is a school where everyone is seen and known. They talked about how much they appreciate opportunities to engage in safe online learning experiences and how the school develops lifelong leadership qualities in students. They said teachers are the backbone of student success at Kelsey Peak and those teachers help foster a passion for learning with activities both virtually and in-person.
Keep up the great work students and staff at Kelsey Peak Virtual Middle School!
