Spotlight On Our Student Cameron

This week, we spotlight Cameron, one of our exchange students from “The Talentprojekt”,  in Grade 10. Cameron’s hometown is San Diego, California and he came to Germany in August to experience the German culture and to improve his already excellent football skills. He is a goalkeeper and actually owns a pair of Manuel Neuer’s goalkeeping gloves!

Cameron is truly the sort of guy you enjoy seeing every day. He brings a positive spirit to our school and likes to make things better for everyone around him. During the School Area Championship, he joined the ISR Team but due to an injury he, unfortunately, couldn’t be our goalkeeper. Instead, he played on the field and helped coach the goalkeeper, giving him useful tips and cheering him on throughout the game. The team ended up winning the championship!

Cameron is well-liked among his new friends at ISR and he is known for his good sense of humor. His host parents here in Germany are delighted to have him in their family and look forward to the many nice memories that are still to come. Also academically, Cameron is a very hard-working student and his teacher Ms. McGee says he is ambitious and always willing to improve.

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

She is always ready to help her fellow classmates and provide assistance to others. Catarina’s friends particularly appreciate her honesty. A recent example describing this good quality occurred last week. Catarina found a considerable amount of cash under the keyboard of her computer. The seventh-grader knew very well that the money was missing for another student and informed our librarian immediately and handed the money to her. We are very proud of the seventh grader and very impressed by her morals and values. Mr. Mo couldn’t have said it better: Stay like you are!

Spotlight On Our Student Evan

This week, we would like to spotlight Evan! Evan is in grade 8 and with the help of a friend, he decided to create an SLO^® activity for 1st–4th graders called ISR Multisport Club. The goal was that the students would get the opportunity to play a different sport every other week.

Each week, Evan decides which activity will take place and he sits down together with Mr. Banks, who is supervising the activity, to make sure the logistics/timing fit for the age of the group. Through these meetings, Mr. Banks has seen his planning and management skills improving weekly. Using his strong leadership and creative skills, Evan has already successfully guided a group of 20 students through 3 different activities. We love and encourage the initiative of an 8th grader running their own SLO^® activity.
