www.hoodrivernews.com Hood River News, Saturday, January 10, 2015 T RAILER H ITCH A runaway yard debris trailer dam- aged St. Mark’s Episcopal Church entryway Wednesday just before 3 p.m. Kenton Chandler of Hood River Towing prepares to remove the trailer from where it struck the church’s south entryway. Herman Lopez of Green Machine said he was towing the trailer eastbound when the tow chain snapped, send- ing the trailer into the side of the building. No one was injured. The trailer hitched knocked out some shingle siding and the handrail. There was no apparent damage to the foundation, though the full ex- tent will be known once an inspec- tion is done, according to Rev. Anna Carmichael, who was in her office and heard the trailer slam into the building. The trailer narrowly missed Carmichael’s parked vehicle. No citation was issued. Photo by Kirby Neumann-Rea Scholar of the Month program starts at HRV In an effort to highlight and recognize outstanding students, Hood River Valley High School recently insti- tuted a Scholar of the Month program. Students are honored for their outstanding perfor- mance within the different de par tments at HRVHS. Teachers in the different de- partment areas nominate students, whereupon the De- partment Chair makes a rec- ommendation to the school administration for that month’s outstanding stu- dent. Students are recognized in the following department areas: English, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, The Ar ts, Career Education, Leadership, World Lan- guages, PE/Health and Prin- cipal’s Choice. The Princi- pal’s Choice represents stu- dents who were nominated by a teacher, counselor or ad- ministrator that has been displaying excellence in a content area that may not “fit” into any of the afore- mentioned departments. Students of the month re- ceive a gift card to a local cof- fee shop, a certificate with their name and their picture displayed on a new Student of the Month board, promi- nently placed in the front en- trance of HRVHS, near the main office. Additionally, each student will be recog- nized at the Evening of Ex- cellence awards night in May. HRVHS Principal Rich Polkinghorn said, “We are proud of the hard work these outstanding students have put into their academics. Being selected as student of the month is a formal ac- knowledgement of diligence and work ethic. One of our focal points for the year is to bring into focus the out- standing academic achieve- ments of our students. This is one way in which we are doing that. These students are to be commended.” Student’s recognized thus far: November English, Maui Glass; Math, Maria Garcia-Toche; Science, Andrea Martinez; Sam Fults; Social Studies, Cayla Sacre; The Arts; Julie Skwarczynski, World Lan- guages; Yahaira Chavarria, PE/Health; Leadership, Jose Ledesma; Career Education, Tiffany Berquist; Principal’s Choice, Stephanie Osorio. December English, Daniel Seal; Math, Cleo Koerner; Science, Halle Campos; Social Stud- ies, Rebecca Wolf; The Arts, Maria Veronica-Marquez; PE/Health, Sierra Reynolds; Leadership, Ibette Sanchez; Career Education; Michael Guzman; Principal’s Choice, Meishan Wu.
