”I have known and admired this student for a long time. As a role model I see him using his time wisely and being an active part of Friday morning peer-lead prayer. As a volunteer at a lot of events around school, he is the type of person who is always willing to help others.

”Elijah is one of the kindest and smartest students I know. He is always kind to everyone and will try his best to bring positivity into any situation. I am fortunate to have him in my AP Computer science class – as he is a top student in the class and a true LEADER. During the Python bootcamp he helped everyone who needed it and did it with a smile. He is a person who ALWAYS exemplifies his best personal character every single day – this Meteor motivates me to be a better teacher.
Ms. Dean
