Spotlight On Our Student Lisa

ISR Student Spotlight: Lisa 

This week, we are delighted to spotlight our exceptional third-grader, Lisa. Since joining ISR in 2021, Lisa has consistently impressed her teachers with her confident demeanor, positive attitude, and dedication to her schoolwork. 

Lisa was nominated for the ISR Student Spotlight by her teacher, Ms. Duenas, who praises her as a remarkable role model both in and out of the classroom. Ms. Duenas notes, “Lisa participates actively in class and expresses herself clearly and confidently. She is always eager to learn and stays focused on her tasks. Her kindness towards others and exemplary behavior makes her a joy to teach. She is respectful and always wears a smile.” 

Lisa’s second-grade teacher, Ms. Albanese, echoes this sentiment: “Lisa is a dedicated student and a sweet, caring person. She works hard and has a genuine love for learning. Her brilliance shines through in her creative problem-solving and determination. I enjoyed reading her incredible stories and texts, filled with special details and original ideas. She relishes challenges and has a real passion for math and solving complex questions. Additionally, Lisa is very artistic, taking great care with her drawings and paying attention to detail.” 

“Above all, Lisa is incredibly caring and humble. She is always ready to help others and is friendly and kind to everyone around her. Her presence exudes calmness and happiness, making it a joy to spend time with her” 

Ms. Kilian, Lisa’s first-grade teacher, adds: “Lisa was a kind and helpful child who always came to school with a smile. She was a dedicated learner with an admirable work ethic, making her a true role model in the classroom. Teaching her was a pleasure. She loved solving math problems and was always willing to help others.” 

Our Elementary School management team also holds Lisa in high regard. Ms. Ghica, Head of Grades 2 and 3, highlights Lisa’s exceptional qualities: “Lisa consistently demonstrates creativity and innovation in problem-solving. Her unique perspective allows her to tackle challenges thoughtfully and impressively. Her dedication combined with critical thinking skills makes her a standout student.” 

Ms. Morris, Head of Grades 4 and 5, adds: “Lisa is a shining star both in and out of the classroom. She contributes insightful perspectives during group discussions and treats her peers with kindness and respect. She embodies our motto, ‘it’s cool to be good!’” 

Lisa’s music teacher, Ms. Ewing, remarks: “Lisa is hardworking, kind, and smart—a fantastic role model who respects everyone in class.” 

Finally, her sports teacher, Mr. Hoste, shares: “Teaching Lisa in PE has been a pleasure since last year. She is motivated, polite, takes initiative, shows great sportsmanship, and is a real team player!” 

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

The ISR Student Spotlight Project aims to highlight one of our students from the ISR-Community every Friday, who embodies our guiding principle “We Enable Great Minds and Strong Characters” by consistently surpassing themselves. Whether through outstanding academic achievements, exceptional dedication, or remarkable character traits – we take pride in having already showcased hundreds of students – and there is more to look forward to every week!
