Pine Log's Point of Pride student for fifth grade, Addison Mulkey, the daughter of Dennis and Deborah Mulkey has proven herself to be a hardworking and fastidious student. Addison participates in classroom discussions and takes pride in helping other students with their classwork. She has a wonderful attitude and takes criticism in a positive way, and she also encourages other students. The teachers at Pine Log have seen Addison grow from a timid unsure student to one who is prideful and dedicated to becoming the best version of herself.
