Plains High School is proud to announce its December Students of the Month, Jesse Vargas and Camila Cueto.

Camila is the senior daughter of Ricardo and Diana Cueto. Her hobbies are playing with her dogs, spending time with family and friends, and baking. Camila is a member of National Honor Society and Student Council. Her future goal is to attend SPC and become a radiology technician. One of Camila's teachers said that "Camila is a hard-working young lady who consistently demonstrates her intelligence and dedication to her studies. She is also sweet and kind. I have enjoyed having her in class."

Jesse is the senior son of Jesse and Crystal Vargas. He is a member of the Plains Cowboy basketball, tennis, and football teams. He enjoys playing sports and hanging out with his friends. Jesse's future plan is to attend college to study the oil field industry. One of Jesse's teachers said that "he has shown such growth throughout the architecture program. His attendance has been great; he is on task the entire class period, making him a leader; he shows interest, asks questions and responds with an enthusiastic approach. He has produced great work this semester that I have been very proud of, including a project he could benefit from in his future."

Plains High School is proud of these students and their accomplishments, and we are happy to call them our Students of the Month!
