Nyjah Behan was nominated as the Arapaho Charter High School student of the week by ACHS Staff.
Arapaho Charter High School is proud to recognize Nyjah Behan as our Student of the Week!
Nyjah, a junior at ACHS, is the son of Matthew Kail Behan and Laterra Duran. He is the full package when it comes to student life, and a rock star in the classroom. Indeed, though this is his junior year he will be graduating in May with honors. He is a regular fixture on the honor roll each quarter, and currently boasts all As in his courses. A nominating teacher writes “Nyjah is a great addition to have in class. He is diligent about getting assignments turned in, and he asks great questions during class. He is friendly and helpful to his classmates.” A second states “Nyjah is a model student and a breath of fresh air. His great attitude, friendly demeanor, and positive energy are characteristics that enhance the culture and climate of our school.”
At ACHS, Nyjah participates in golf and basketball, helps with Food Distribution, and enthusiastically participates in the wide variety of activities that take place at school. He also takes a leadership role as a Junior Class Representative to the Warrior Council. He enjoys interacting with people at school and adventuring outside when he has free time away from school. After graduating in May he plans to enroll at Laramie County Community College in Cheyenne, where he’s already been accepted, to study Social Work. Way to go, Nyjah!
Matthew Kail Behan and Laterra Duran are the proud parents of Nyjah.
