Valley’s SHINE Award
Lydia Mancilla
We are very excited to announce that 4th grader Lydia Mancilla is Valley’s November recipient of the SHINE award for the 2024-2025 school year. Our Character Education program is a key component to helping our students understand what it means to lead and to be good citizens. Every month, we honor one student who consistently demonstrates two or more pillars of character which are: Citizenship, Caring, Trustworthiness, Fairness, Respect, and Responsibility. To recognize these students for their efforts, Beavercreek City Schools has created the “SHINE Award – Highlighting Outstanding Students of Character.”
This is how Lydia’s teacher, Mr. Dillon, describes her:
Lydia is a model student that follows directions without any question. She is kind and respectful not only to her teacher but to her classmates as well. Lydia always puts in the maximum effort into anything she does and is able to look back at her work with a sense of pride for a job well done. Lydia is always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone she sees in need whether that is a classmate needing help on an assignment or a student that needs reassurance and encouragement because they may be struggling with something. I cannot brag on Lydia enough; she truly is a one of a kind student that deserves the recognition of this award and I am incredibly proud to have her in my class this year!
Way to go, Lydia! Keep up the great work!
