Paige Fair was honored as Bement High School Student of the Quarter. Melissa Applebee commented, “Paige is an exemplary student in my English class. She has grown so much from her freshman to senior year. She is funny, smart, and friendly, all while being her calm self. She is working with the stage crew for the play this year, a member of GSA and was chosen as a LifeSaver, which speaks volumes about her interpersonal skills. She approaches every task with determination and focus.” Paige is the daughter of Erica Tyler. The Student of the Quarter Award is co-sponsored by the High School Student Council and the State Bank of Bement. Its purpose is to recognize a student whose attitude and involvement serve to improve our school. Paige is pictured with Jill Clodfelter, Student Council Sponsor and Kendra Jayne from the State Bank of Bement. Congratulations Paige.
