Please meet our Whiz Kid of the Week!

Jocelyn Zepeda

Grade:  8       

School:  George Washington Middle School 2    

Accomplishment:

Highly motivated Jocelyn set a goal to get straight A’s, and she achieved it! Described as always smiling, friendly and easy to approach, Jocelyn stands out because of the level of her commitment to her goal and the effort she put into achieving it. No matter how difficult the material became or how intense the workload became, she never gave up. She never backed down.

Not only did Jocelyn work hard in and outside of class, but she also helped her peers to achieve similar positive goals and helped them in classes when they were struggling.         

Congratulations, Jocelyn!
