He's my youngest son.

Tell us about your star student's accomplishments and why they deserve to be recognized on Patch!

My son does extremely well in school. He listens and pays attention. He has not attended school outside of kindergarten, as I have taught him the basics, so the teacher and I were very happy. He comes ready to learn and always has his hand up in class. Even though he had a speech delay, that has never stopped him from being a great student and role model.

Outside of school, he helps with chores and with our animal rescue. He loves animals and being outdoors. He hopes to either play soccer or try boxing. He is amazing, and I’m blessed to have such an amazing young man. He even picks up trash when we go on our walks. He’s very inspiring.

What three words best describe your star student?

Ambitious, quick learner and academic achiever.
