Student of the Week

Superintendent's Message

“We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.” - Martin Luther King Jr.
 

STUDENT OF THE WEEK

Congratulations to Lawsyn Liptak, a third grader in Mrs. Harris’s class, on being named Canton ISD’s Student of the Week!
 
Lawsyn is the daughter of Kyle and Morgan Liptak and has been a Canton Eagle since kindergarten. Her favorite subject is math, and she enjoys playing volleyball, softball, and basketball. Outside of school, Lawsyn also enjoys ice skating. When she grows up, she hopes to become a dentist. Lawsyn also shares that she has an older sister.
 
Dr. Lloyd describes Lawysn, “As a joy to have on campus. Recently, Lawsyn was recognized for helping another student get to their car during dismissal without being asked. Her kindness, positive attitude, and willingness to help others make her a wonderful example for her classmates.”
