Ben's Bells

Grace Albrecht was nominated by Tracey Klell, who said:

Grace is a 5th-grade student at Estes Elementary. After learning about band, orchestra and general music choices she noticed that her classmates were sad. She asked a few of them why and they said that they were going to have to take general music because their family can’t afford to buy them an instrument. So she started making bracelets to sell for $3 each and has raised over $600 for her classmates. She is a true example of an Estes Leader, leading with a caring heart every day. I would be honored for you to recognize this special young lady. 

Alexa Robinson was nominated by Nora Adkins, who said:

Alexa is a student in my fifth-grade class at Desert Willow Elementary School. She genuinely cares about others. I've witnessed her going out of her way to seek out the new kid sitting alone at recess and invite them to come play with her and her friends. One day for a science lesson, Alexa chose the new, shy student to be her partner instead of one of her many friends in class. Alexa cares about everyone. She works hard in class and is always willing to help out. She even brought in "You can do it!" notes and passed them out before benchmark tests. I'm so lucky to have her in my class this year.
