Spotlight On Our Student Julia

Julia, Grade 5, hast been at ISR since Grade 3. She is a great soccer player and her former coach Mr. Baumann says she was one of the best female players he ever had. Her teacher Mr. Foy says; “Watching Julia play in my Gaelic Football club I see that she sets about everything in her life with the same passion, tenacity, and bravery.

She is incredibly open minded and undaunted by challenges, as she proved in our Grade 5 English debate as she overcame her nerves to deliver a strong opening statement. She is as committed to friendships and to her studies and as well as improving the lives of those around her.” Also her former English teacher Ms. Lazar says Julia is an outstanding student with a strong character in and out of the classroom. She is always enthusiastic about learning, even when the material got difficult. “It’s been a pleasure teaching her English!” says Ms. Lazar.  Julia is also a kind and caring friend, always willing to help out and doing the right thing.

We are proud to spotlight Julia, one of ISR’s many outstanding students!

Spotlight On Our Student Tim

This week, we like to feature the “Big Brother” of ISR, Tim, Grade 11.  Tim has been at ISR since Kindergarten and surely knows his way around our school. His teachers, current and former, find it is very special to follow a student for so long and all agree that Tim has certainly matured a lot over the past few years.

“I see him growing into a good example of an IB student. Open, critical, respectful, and getting there with hard work as well” says his teacher Ms. Zic. His German teacher Mr. Kroenke says “Tim’s current academic success in my German class can be traced back to the fact that even when he is confronted with stress and failure, he keeps being self-motivated and goal orientated. He does not shy away from tackling very demanding works of literature in his free time, which shows that he is at the same time open-minded, courageous, and persevering“.

Tim still has his playful spirit and gives back to our school community. The Kindergarten children LOVE having Tim come read to them on a weekly basis and he has recently become a “Big Brother” to a Grade 5 student in Middle School. Both of them really enjoy spending time together each week! As a larger CAS project, Tim has decided to work with “It’s for kids e.V.“ to support local projects for children growing up under less fortunate circumstances. Tim has a big heart, is always very polite, and is a true friend. His everlasting good mood is contagious and he always has a helping hand to spare.

We are proud to spotlight Tim, one of ISR’s many outstanding students!

Spotlight On Our Student Dakshith

Dakshith is a wonderful Grade 1 student who always walks around with a smile on his face. According to Ms. Berg, his teacher, Dakshith stands out to his teacher and classmates because he is resilient in everything he does, always puts others before himself and is always the first to ask others if they are OK when they are looking down or sad.

Dakshith works hard every single day, is friendly to everyone and always makes the classroom look nice by tidying up and picking up trash. “We can always count on Dakshith and are so lucky to have him in 1B!”, declares Ms. Berg.

We are proud to spotlight Dakshith, one of many of ISR’s outstanding students!
