        Description: 
Plummer Elementary Fifth Grader Geremiah Pervis is thrilled to be a Plummer Longhorn! Geremiah loves making the morning announcements as well as listening to them. He states that we have so much happening at Plummer that he is always excited about waking up and coming to school. "Plummer feels like family", Pervis said. His most memorable moment at Plummer ES was attending last year's Spelling Bee and having a Round Table Discussion with Teen Superintendent Skylar Wesley. Geremiah would want people to know that he is caring and considers himself to be an advocate for peace and happiness. His hobbies include reading, playing ABCYA on his chromebook, and talking with friends and family. His daily inspiration is to live up to the quote that he hears his principal, Dr. Shanta Mackey, makes on the announcements. "Do the right thing at all times even when no one is watching' - Mr. Pervis is a scholar who embodies INTEGRITY at all times. |
