Hayden Pond Named November Student of the Month at Rainbow Preschool
Hayden Pond was named the November 2011 Rainbow Preschool Student of the Month. Hayden received this award because he made great progress on his curriculum at home and at school in the month of November.
Hayden's family had undergone changes and he continued to work hard and was ready with a hug when others needed it. Hayden also worked diligently on using his Dynavox speech device to communicate with his family and therapists. For his progress, good attitude and helping his family, Hayden is very deserving of November's Student of the Month.
The Arc of Orleans County and Rainbow Preschool would like to congratulate Hayden on a job well done!
