Sydney Puckett is this week’s student of the week. The 10 year-old is a 5th grader at Happy Valley Middle School in Elizabethton. She enjoys being with her friends, but is still focused in the classroom. Sydney likes helping people and wants to become a nurse.
"It helps people, give them medicine and they can fell better," She said.
Jeff Holt has been a teacher for more than thirty years. He’s taught a lot of students and said Sydney is a model student and a good example for other students to follow.
"She's a good student and works real hard and if you had 25 students just like her, coming to work would be a pleasure," Holt said.
Earning recognition for her hard work is something Sydney never thinks about, but her teachers say it's well deserved.
