Wednesday, March 4, 2020 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon TAYLOR FENDALL Sisters High School February 2020 Student of the Month Taylor Fendall has set high goals for himself in his senior year, keeping his GPA high and preparing to play college football at Winfield College in McMinnville. “In order to do that Iʼve had to keep myself in great shape — academically and physically,” he said. Taylor is prepping for the spring baseball season while participating in Mr. SHS activities — all while work- ing hard in the classroom. Fendall has lived all over Oregon, moving with his family. Heʼs glad to have settled in Sisters for his high school career, where he has a friend group that is positive and sticks to the straight and narrow and where the staff is exceptionally helpful to students. “Iʼm greatly appreciative of that,” he said. “I think Sisters does a really good job of setting their students up for success — mainly academically, but in other ways, too.” “Taylor Fendall is the kind of person who lights up any classroom, the kind of friend who can be counted on, and the kind of compassionate heart who will always lend a helping hand. He has a positive outlook on life and an incredibly genuine soul. With a whole lot of charac- ter, integrity and grace, he walks through life to make a difference, truly making people better. Everyone needs a Taylor in their lives. I know that I will miss this Outlaw around here at SHS after he graduates, but I also know that he will continue to positively touch lives no mat- ter where his journey takes him. He is a gift.” — Samra Spear “I have observed Taylor sacrifice his personal time to help with various activities outside the normal school day. He truly is a community servant who believes in doing the little things to enhance the positive culture of the school. More importantly, he is just a caring and compassionate young man. I am grateful for how involved and com- mitted Taylor is to sports, academics and the sacrifices heʼs made to make our school a better place.” — Joe Hosang “Taylor Fendall is a stable rock for our school and community. His kind- ness and humble approach make others feel welcome and included. His humor brings smiles to those around him. I am so glad I have had the opportunity to teach and know Taylor. He has taught me how to have grit and perseverance. Congratulations, Taylor!” — Rima Givot “I have had the opportunity to watch Taylor transform from his freshman to senior year, and it has been a great joy to watch him grow as he is an incredible young man. Taylor is a true OUTLAW. He is all in! Taylor not only shows up to every possible Outlaw event, he does it with enthusiasm, kindness, and heart. If anyone was able to witness his amazing MC hammer pants at “80s Sadieʼs” you know what I am talking about. Thank you, Taylor ... for making Sisters High School a great place to be. We will miss you next year!” — Tim Roth “It is a joy being around Taylor, I especially love seeing how he is a leader of students.” — Tony Cosby “Taylor really represents the Outlaw spirit for me. He is hardworking, enthu- siastic, and responsible. I appreciate the places I have seen him choose to chal- lenge himself academically amidst the demands of being a student athlete and choose to engage thoughtfully instead of just get by. I love watching him play with his whole heart and go out of his way to encourage his teammates. He has such fight and humility. Alongside his com- mitment and passion there is a thought- ful heart that makes for a pretty amazing guy. Sisters High School is a better place because of Taylor.” — Jami Lyn Weber These businesses have joined The Nugget Newspaper in supporting our youth and their accomplishments by co-sponsoring the Student of the Month program.
