Just before winter break, Excel Roseland, part of the Chicago Public Schools’ Options Network, celebrated the first semester awards assembly and holiday luncheon. This event recognized students’ achievements in academics and attendance.

During the awards ceremony, students were acknowledged for honor roll, high honor roll, and principal honor roll. Two students, one male and one female, were recognized as the most improved students of the semester.

Attendance awards were also given to students with the most improved and perfect attendance during the first and second quarters. Additional accolades included most dependable student, December student of the month, and student of the semester.

Students also recognized staff through votes for various superlatives. Mr. Adams was honored as staff member of the semester, known for his dependability, approachability, and supportive feedback. Students praised his humor and personable nature.

The holiday luncheon following the ceremony brought the Excel community together, where students and staff shared a meal and celebrated their collective achievements.
