Meet Dy-Ann Mullinax, a Buford Academy first-grader. Dy-Ann is the stepdaughter of Jessica Mullinax and the daughter of Jackie and Chance Mullinax. Dy-Ann has one sister and one brother, both older than her. This year, Dy-Ann is enrolled in Mrs. Botham’s first grade class and she is being named Reader of the Week for her excellent academic achievements and enthusiasm for reading.
Some of Dy-Ann’s favorite books include mysteries like “Calendar Mysteries,” written by Rom Roy.
Dy-Ann’s favorite food is avocados, and her favorite color is green!
In her free time, Dy-Ann loves to travel to places she has never been to and even revisit some of her favorite places, such as Myrtle Beach. Dy-Ann also enjoys taking care of her two pets, Bandit, her ferret, and Goldie, her fish.
Mrs. Lana Nix, Buford Academy’s media specialist, praises Dy-Ann for the wonderful student she is.
“Dy-Ann is one of the neatest kids to sit and have a conversation with, Nix said. “She is way beyond her years. Dy-Ann is one of the most caring and helpful students I know.”
Dy-Ann, congrats on being elected reader of the week! We are so proud of you and can’t wait to see what the future holds for you. Keep up the great work!
