Dario is a great student. History is a lot of work, but he consistently shows that he is dedicated to his success. He is always on task, is engaged throughout the lesson, answers questions, and always turns in high quality work. He doesn't hesitate to ask for help from peers or myself, and is willing to work with and help his classmates. He is very funny, adding humor to class discussions and is a great source of candy for some of the kids in our class lol. I very much enjoy having him in class and I wish I had more students like him. - Kelsey Lynch

Long Nguyen is a great addition to his lab partners while working on group work and projects. I enjoy him in class and wish him success in the future. - Laura Oswalt

Huy is such a polite and respectful student. He greets me when he comes in every day and also says goodbye before he leaves. He continually thanks me for teaching him. He always does his homework, pays attention in class, and is a very reliable student. When Huy is struggling with the calculus material, he attends tutoring to get help, which I respect as an educator. Huy is a quiet student, so he doesn't often get the positive attention that he deserves! He is a joy to teach! - Michelle Nelsen

- Ariel Blalock

Ariel Blalock: Honestly, I wish I could have nominated her for every SOAR category. Ariel has a maturity level well beyond her years. She takes ownership for every project, every endeavor, actually, when it comes to the Teaching and Training pathway. She is supportive, helpful, and encouraging to her peers and demonstrates creativity and enthusiasm consistently. For example, on her own accord, Ariel regularly reaches out to other students whom she knows are struggling and offers her assistance on assignments and projects. She will communicate with me about those she helps and will ask for affirmation that the information she has disseminated is correct. It is such a joy to witness these characteristics already exhibited in a future teacher! Additionally, she has successfully secured a spot at the TAFE State competitions (no easy feat) and we all hope she will proceed to the national competitions this summer. - Dr. Liz Starr
