Ashley Tate is hardworking, respectful, and a great teammate for her peers during group and lab work. She is never put off by a challenge; instead, she keeps working and asking questions until she understands. Once she has ensured her own understanding, she is always willing to help those around her. What a pleasure to have in class! 

Matthew Swett is dedicated and hardworking in a class where it is easy to get distracted. At times, he keeps me sane by asking questions, helping out his fellow classmates, and constantly working to improve. If I could give him student of the year, I would! 

This young lady is a superstar! Her 99% 1Q avg. was due to two missed questions on our mid-term. Otherwise, she was prefect. With every assignment and response, she goes above and beyond; never taking a shortcut on anything. She is inquisitive, always wanting to know more. Just as important, she has great social skills and is kind and respectful to everyone. I consider her the (not "a," "THE") model student.
