We are happy to have Madison Opitz as this week’s Canton ISD, “Student of the Week!” Madison is the granddaughter of Pamela Lane and she says her favorite subject is Science.

Madison will be attending Texas A&M University in the Fall and hopes to pursue a career as an Emergency Medicine Physician. In school Madison is involved in the Athletic Training Program, Leo Club, and National Honor Society.

When she is not in school she enjoys hiking and working at Southern Fried. She also enjoys reading and spending time with her family.

CHS Principal, Mr. Spencer says, "Madison is a great student with a bright future ahead of her. She makes a big impact on the CHS Campus. I look forward to all the things ahead of Madison in her life. I have no doubt she will be very successful in life."

We are very fortunate to have great student leaders like Madison Opitz in our school and congratulate her on being named the CISD “Student of the Week!”

The Eagle Vision trait for the week is, “Give respect to gain respect.” Treat others as you would like to be treated.

The Eagle Etiquette reminder is “Use ‘Please,’ ‘Thank you,’ and ‘You’re Welcome’ when appropriate.”

And the Quote of the Month for March is “Be the one that brightens the room when you enter it…not when you leave it.”

Make sure to keep up with all the campuses and district happenings by following us on Twitter. We want to thank our community for all their support, and hope everyone has a great week!

Respectfully,

Jay Tullos
