This week, we spotlight our third-grader Lena-Marie, who joined ISR in 2017. Lena-Marie is a hard-working and very kind-hearted student. She always works to the best of her abilities and does everything with a smile on her face. Lena-Marie has a wonderful sense of humor, which her teachers and classmates appreciate very much.

Her strong empathy and caring nature are qualities that make her a wonderful friend. When her classmates have questions during class, Lena-Marie is the first to be supportive and patient as well as enthusiastic in helping them. Lena is super athletic and loves to spend her breaks outside in the sun. She loves playing tag or skipping with her friends and you often see her doing hand-stands in the playground. Also, she is talented soccer player and shows her skills during the breaks.

Her German teacher, Mrs. Hartman, says about her, “She is such a great student. Lena is always ready, cheerful and in the mood for a joke. She is very empathetic and helps others. Having Lena in class is a delight!”
