Mrs. Price nominated Laila and noted, “Laila is a dedicated and hardworking student. I know she is very active in FFA, but she doesn't let that distract her from her other classes. She's responsible for making up work if she misses anything. I can always count on her to participate in class and she contributes to insightful conversations. She has demonstrated both kindness and respect around her teachers and peers” In addition, Ms. Fisher mentioned “Laila always brings a great amount of energy to class, is very hard working, and always has funny stories to share.”

Some of Laila’s favorite things are her mothers cream cheese danish, Hereford Cows, the TV show, Yellowstone, the movie Avatar, and her favorite holiday is Christmas. She enjoys showing cattle, riding horses, drawing, and bass fishing. However, Maggie does not like history classes and “questionnaires that ask her what her favorite things are. "Congratulations, Laila Beck!
