Bowie High School student Jackie Vargas has just been nominated Student of the month on April 17, 2015. 

She is currently a freshman at the school and has just recently been told about her nomination and selection.

When asked if she thought she was going to be voted to the position, Vargas said, "No, but I hoped for it." 

Upon receiving the news of her being chosen, Vargas was rather surprised. “I was excited; it was shocking,” Vargas told the interviewer.

Before finding out that she won the Student of the Month, Jackie said that she would vote for her friend, Megan. Vargas explained this by saying, “She’s my friend and also deserved it.”

Being asked why her friend should have been voted, Jackie said that she “studied as hard as I did and did well in school.”

If it were possible to have a teacher vote for her, Vargas replied, “I hope so.”

Vargas answered, asked the question what she would do as the student of the month, “What I’ve always been doing.

If she had been doing anything specific to earn said position, Vargas didn’t say. She only said, “Not really, my grades are great, and teachers like me.”

Jackie only knows the only people she knows for sure voted for her are “my friends, because they know how hard I work.

Vargas wants to help any students reaching for the same goal by “helping other students with their schoolwork.”’

Most likely there will be a special ceremony for the presentation of the award for Student Of the Month. As the type of award, if there is one, on which Vargas was questioned, she thinks “Yes, like a certificate.”

Of course, not every ceremony will be complete without a speech. Vargas says she will, “thank everybody.”

There is, of course the chance of seeing the new Student of the Month next month. Vargas thinks it will be “Who didn’t win last time, Megan.”

For everyone who strives to achieve something, there is a motivation. For Jackie, she says “Yes.”

The reasons behind that motive are varied. For Jackie, she said that she was “Always wanting to do well in school.”

There are always people to help give you motivation. Vargas said that these people were “My teachers, friends, and family.”

From previous winners, they have given good advice. Vargas is no different. Her advice is to “keep working.”
