We had a special nomination from a community member for this week's Badger Who Shines! Ms. Tiffani Rana had this to say about Brayden Bowen, 8th Grade:
"I am a parent volunteer for the high school AFJROTC. During our Friday night game against Jacksonville, I noticed Brayden do something extra special. The home side’s concession stand was super busy, and attendees were coming over to the visitor’s concession stand to purchase food. One of Jacksonville’s visitors was trying to find money in her purse to purchase a drink, and Brayden stepped in from nowhere and paid for her drink and insisted we keep the change. At first, the lady did not realize what had happened but expressed her gratitude afterwards. Later that night he came back over to purchase popcorn. I offered it to him for free for his selfless act previously in the night, but he was adamant about paying. It’s not every day you meet a young student who gives without hesitation and without wanting praise. He came over to the concession stand last night and was just as polite as the first time I met him. Brayden is an exceptionally kind student who deserves recognition for his kind act."
Thank you, Brayden, for embodying the true Badger spirit, and thank you, Ms. Rana, for recognizing Brayden's selfless act! Badger Pride Runs Deep! #BPRD
