"Ellie was chosen because of her outstanding grades and her impressive leadership and participation in the mathletes club," principal Mark Robinson said.
After finding out that she obtained this respected award, she is overfilled with emotions.
"All I feel is happiness," Coulston said.
Grades are a major part of the criteria they are looking for in the choosing of this award.
"Keeping up my grades was easy seeing as I studied hard every night and turned in my homework on time," Coulston said.
In order to make sure she got as far a she wanted to, she set up her own criteria for what she thinks is acceptable.
"My criteria for student of the month is having a 4.3 GPA," Coulston said.
The mathletes club founder helped Coulston through out the entire year to make sure she was handling it well.
"Stressful and intrigued is two words I would use to describe the work and experience the nominees work through," mathletes club founder Teresa Adams said.
Working hard is essential in order to win this title.
"Some advice I have for students wanting to be student of the month is to make sure that grind doesn't stop," Coulston said.
Failing and learning from your mistakes and then getting back up and trying again is something that happens to everybody, except Coulston.
"I never failed, only succeeded," Coulston said.
Colleges look for leadership skills and grades on your application form.
"I think winning this title will be helpful in the future because it will make colleges look closer at my application," Coulston said.
This award is made to help inspire students to work hard and get good grades.
"I will try out for this award again because it felt like an amazing accomplishment and I was very proud of myself at the end," Coulston said.
Classmates are inspired to win this award.
"Watching Ellie bloom and grow throughout the whole thing really made me feel like I should push myself more and be like her," sophomore Natalia Kauffman said.
The staff works together to make sure that everyone has a fair chance.
"The teachers all talk and put in their best students in the drawing and then the principal picks one out," biology teacher Brandy Ramos said.
There could always be a next time for everybody.
"Next time I can study more to be even better," Coulston said.
