Here's a close-up view of the name plaque. There is an annual name plate on each side of the octagonal base. Each month the name of the winner of the award is engraved on the trophy. (Note: Last names were erased for the website but are engraved on the trophy) Wise Owl winners also receive a specially made certificate commemorating his or her Wise Owl Student of the Month achievement. |

Another Wise Owl goes traveling and is the same as the owl that is on the trophy. The award winning student of the Month takes this home and keeps it for the month. This owl is carefully wrapped in a plastic box and travels to and from home and school, visiting wise owl students and their families. |

By Mrs. Renz
The Wise Owl was donated by my father, Scott Reekie.
The Wise Owl is made of ironwood and was handmade in Mexico.
My father brought it back after a vacation to the Mexican village of Kino, on the Sea of Cortez.
He was educated in Scotland. The grade school that he attended had a
Wise Owl award which was given for the above qualities.
This award was his idea! (Thanks, Dad!)
