Richard continually demonstrated unselfish acts of responsibility. He missed class only once, and that was due to an emergency. He was always on time to class and the work site as well. Richard always offered to help others in need, such as lifting something heavy. When offered a five-minute extension for a break for all his unsolicited help, he declined the offer. Richard was always available to help when the need arose.Lastly, Richard is a people-oriented person. When done with his work in class, he would offer his knowledge and assistance to his fellow classmates. He is studious, congenial, and a highly self-motivated individual. Richard’s accomplishments are a testament to to an excellent student, person, public education and what all of our high school students are capable of achieving.
