Something to Brag About:
Two eight grade students at Wunderlich Intermediate have achieved their goal of earning the Girl Scout Silver Award. Devyn C. and Tiffany S. received their award on Saturday, April 19th. These two girls are on the Honor Roll and members of the NJHS there at Wunderlich. For her project, Devyn chose to write a book to encourage open communication between teens and their parents. She presented it to her piers and received great feedback from them. Great reading for teens and adults. For her project, Tiffany made pillows and delivered them to the patients at Memorial Hermann Children’s Hospital where she was born as a preemie. She enjoyed the smiles she received in return. Each girl has shown both leadership skills as well as a love for their country, family and community.
Congratulations to the Wunderlich Symphonic Band!
