Congrats to our Papa Murphy Senior Students of the Month
LTC Hallstrom nominated Cadet Trinity Lutz. Trinity serves Pekin Community High School and the greater Pekin Community with enthusiasm and pride and is well deserving of the Papa Murphy Student of the Month Award. She is dependable and exact in the coordination of these events with all of her subordinates ensuring success in all that she does. While coordinating these events, she fully embodies the word citizenship for the greater Pekin community.
Dr. Bachelor nominated Jonathan Haller. Jonathan is not only completely engaged in class activities by intellectually contributing to class discussions but also consistently assists classmates with the learning process. He is helpful and knowledgeable while striving for excellence.
Are you tired of popping your own popcorn or driving to the store to buy it? Then we have a solution for you! Our SkillsUSA chapter is selling popcorn that ships directly to your house already popped! There are a ton of witty options available. If snuggles is a quality you look for in popcorn, then there's an option for that called Caramel-Diem. Please help us out! Our chapter receives 50% of sales, and if we sell the most in Illinois this week, then we will receive a $1000 bonus! This would really help us be able to include more students in our chapter, take more to nationals, and then you know, feed them occasionally.
