His astounding growth this quarter has been an added reminder of the transformative piower of hard work. Well done, Sandip.

I gave Roland a huge list of revisions and necessary additions for his narrative essay rough draft. To my great joy, he addressed every single item I had noted, and his lackluster rough draft transformed into a polished, powerful final draft. That level of perseverance, especially in the midst of a congested soccer schedule, made a strong impression on me; well done, Roland!

On 3 separate occasions students in my 3rd period class left phones or charges behind.  When Anthony came into 4th period, he found the devices and immediately turned them in to me for safekeeping.
