Recommendations

Samantha has all the attributes of an excellent person and student. As a student, she is interested, engaged, diligent and highly successful. I really appreciated her contributions to class discussions. As a peer, she is loved and respected by all...largely because she loves and respects her peers. She is very active in our school activities because she invests in herself to grow and contributes to others to ensure their growth. She is a remarkable candidate for any program of her choosing.

I have not personally taught Sam, but she is a known entity at Eastern Christian on account of her outgoing personality, widespread involvement across the high school, and leadership ability.

Sam works well with others. She tries hard to complete her work well. She is smart and has many talents.
