Mrs. Crystal Lett is the December recipient of the Core 3 Award for the MS, nominated by Maria. The Core 3 Award allows students to recognize any staff member who empowers students to learn, leads with kindness and by example, and exhibits excellence. The Core 3 reflects our mission statement of "Empowering Learners, Inspiring Leaders" and our motto of "A Tradition of Excellence." Maria nominated Mrs. Lett because "She is so nice, and when I come in every day, she makes me smile. She makes people laugh and gives them a good day, even when they've had a bad one. Mrs. Lett brightens my day, she makes others' days like that, too." Congratulations, Mrs. Lett!

Malta Middle School is proud to partner with the Malta Kiwanis Club to recognize and celebrate outstanding students who demonstrate academic excellence, respect, service to others, and are a positive influence within our school and community.
December Student of the Month is Nolan M. Mr. Hough had this to say, "Nolan has made great strides to stay on top of his work during this year and has shown an impressive dedication to school. He started the year picking a difficult class. However, despite the level of the class, he has been working hard to learn the material and rise up to the challenge. Additionally, he has been diligent in making sure he does not have any late or missing work, and he has been asking for help often to make sure his work gets done right. The amount of growth in character this is showing is phenomenal and deserves to be rewarded. Nolan is a dedicated young man who has a good heart. He often can be found walking through the halls with his friends and laughing with them. His humor is entertaining and he keeps his jokes relevant and appropriate in class, trying to bring a laugh to teachers and fellow students when appropriate." Congratulations Nolan!
