Teachers said...
He is extremely principled as he takes responsibility for the work that he needs to get done. He stays focused on the task at hand and does not get caught up in conversations that are not related to what they are learning. He reflects on his tasks to ensure he covers all aspects of the work. He asks questions and is not happy to rest on his previous knowledge. This has been seen many times in Bible where he has worked to become more knowledgeable regarding the Scripture and the narratives we have studied.
He interacts positively with his peers, shows perseverance on difficult tasks and encourages other students.  He definitely collaborates well with a wide variety of students in a variety of his subjects.
In PE he has shown himself to be a positive risk taker in Gymnastics. He displayed Open-mindedness in Health class by listening to others opinions in class and expressing his own considered thoughts through his writing.
He has shown a steady commitment to excellence.  For example, his thoughtful comments and critically superior written work in English class on his Fanmail project show he is truly a Thinker.  He has shown he is Open-Minded by opening himself up to new experiences, a new culture, and new friendships this semester.  His keen observations, careful communication, and the quiet force of his personality make him an asset to any classroom and any relationship. 
He has shown himself to be a risk taker and leader to lead his section with developing skills, maturity and humbleness in Strings. He is sincere and positive in class and is a good example to others.
