A special thank you to Mrs. Santana for leading our NIET professional development sessions on Wednesdays!

"I am honored to nominate my homeroom student, Rafael Tamayo, for the SMS September Thriving Achiever award. Rafael exemplifies the values and spirit of Cobra Pride through his dedication, hard work, and positive attitude.

Academically, Rafael has demonstrated exceptional achievement, earning High Proficiency (HP) in reading, writing, and math based on his AASA results. His consistent performance across all subject areas reflects his commitment to excellence and his ability to thrive in challenging academic pursuits.

Beyond academics, Rafael is an active participant in community sports, showcasing his teamwork, discipline, and leadership skills. His involvement not only highlights his well-rounded character but also his ability to positively impact those around him."
