October Members of the Month

Ethan O’Neal

Eathan O’Neal has been a club member since this past summer. He is an active member in the STARS room and attends the program almost every day. Eathan is always eager to get involved in whatever activity we have planned each day although he is especially fond of computer time where he plays his favorite game, Minecraft. He always enters and leaves the building with a smile on his face and his positive attitude is uplifting to both the staff and his peers. Eathan is a 1st grader this year at Monroe Elementary. His goal for this school year is to learn to count to 100 and he is always excited about practicing to achieve this! We are delighted to have him here as a member at our West Side Boys and Girls Club.

Emma Hall

Emma Hall is an amazing member of the STARS Program. She comes each day, excited to be here to learn and play with the other club members. She has been a leader in the STARS room and is always the first to offer any help, whether it be to another member on their homework or cleaning up around the club. Emma comes each day and takes out her homework without being asked and gets right to it! She is doing well in school this year and has been excelling in spelling. She follows directions easily and is extremely polite. Emma is a joy to have around and role model for the younger members of our club!
