Which Trait was this person exhibiting?
Humble
Why are you nominating this person?
Mrs. Vuong has been an incredible addition to the #BraveNation family. She consistently shows all the Traits of a Brave, but the one that stands out to me most is her humility. Mrs. Vuong always goes above and beyond in all that she does, and puts others first. In the two times she has helped me with events at CTMS, she arrived early, stayed late, and made sure everything was clean and orderly before I ever even stepped on campus.
She also puts others first daily on her campus. I have heard from dozens of people how impressed they are with her and her drive to make sure all students and staff are taken care of and feel at-home when at Community Trails.
Mrs. Vuong is an amazing Brave!

I nominated Mr. Jonathon Clifton because as a principal, he demonstrates what it means to be a humble and wise leader. Not a day goes by where he does not check in with me personally and I see him do the same for all his staff. He gets actively involved with the students daily. He is always on call ready to help and he delivers support to teachers, parents, students and EVERYONE in positive ways. I feel so blessed to have him as admin.

I am nominating Mr. Aguilar for this because he has has shown how much he loves our Edge students and has exhibited all of the traits of a brave. He has stepped in to help out the students while their science teacher was out, in making sure they had what they needed, helping the students with assignments, lessons, etc. and covering other classes that weren't his. He's been going above and beyond and stepped up when he didn't have to. My daughter said he is one of the best teachers. Then, the other night at the EMS Football game, he came down with his daughter and participated in the cheerleaders tumble line. Thank you Mr. Aguilar for pouring into our EMS Braves! We appreciate you!!

I would like to nominate Brayden Moore for going above and beyond and humble enough to serve his school and community. Brayden has consistently volunteered for various positions within the theater community over the last few years and just last week holding doors for a choir concert he isn’t even involved in. He gets his incredible humble and generous spirit from his dad who also volunteers his time to be the theater/choir booster club vice president. They both actively volunteer at a local food pantry as well with our church family. I am proud of his enthusiastic and helpful servant heart and as his momma, will brag on him all day long!
