Jose Guerrero Pernia is our next November Character Education Award recipient!
A fifth grade student at West Clayton Elementary, Pernia is a well rounded student who has a love for learning. He takes ownership when he makes a mistake, and is proud of himself when he masters a skill. He takes pride in his work and relationships, and his love for learning is contagious. He wants to be a soccer player when he grows up but if that does not work out he thinks he would like to be a banker because he LOVES math!
Keep up the great work Jose Guerrero Pernia!🎇
