Our very own, Victoria Mercado, has been selected as a recipient of the AZ19 Most Influential Youth awards 🥳🏆💕!
Victoria was nominated for this award by her teacher, Ms. L. Lopez.
This is what Ms. L. Lopez had to say about our amazing Victoria:
"Victoria is an exemplary student. She always walks into school with a positive, cheery attitude and smile. She has a very kind heart. No matter what the challenge is for that day, she is eager to overcome it without hesitation. Victoria not only worries about her academics and assignments, she is always taking initiative to help her fellow peers and staff. She participates in morning tutoring and patiently waits to assist the lunch lady to help deliver the classroom breakfast. Victoria is also involved in afterschool and community activities, which involve Robotics, Tae Kwon Do, and art classes. She is a great role-model, always does her best, and gives her all!"
Congratulations to Victoria and her family💛! We are so proud!
