Kiwanis Club of Temple City was pleased to have honored three outstanding students from Emperor Elementary School at their meeting, January 10, 2006.  Pictured with the proud students is Emperor teacher, Mr. Greg Giangregorio.

Melody is 11 years old and is in Mr. Giangregorio’s 6^th grade class. Melody has one younger sister and enjoys drawing, reading, singing, and playing the piano. She said, “the best things about school are my friends, the environment, and Mr. ‘G’.”  Melody described Mr. G as “the great groovy teacher.” The best thing that ever happened to Melody was winning 1^st Place for the Arbor Day Poster Contest in 5^th grade. Personal goals she is striving for are to have good grades, and make nice friends.

Renee is 12 years old and is in Miss. Parrille’s 6^th grade class. Renee has five brothers and sisters and enjoys reading, writing, and drawing. Renee said, “the best things about school are the great teachers, and recess.” The best thing that ever happened to Renee was when she got her guinea pigs. Personal goals are to build another pet store that is cheaper and kinder to animals, to be an actress, work at a coffee place, and to read all the classic books.
