๐๐Congratulations to MARLI PENN for being our high school student of the month for March! Marli was nominated and won based on the character trait of Attentiveness.
Attentiveness is โconcentrating on the person or task before me.โ Not only does this help you learn, but it shows how much you value the person or project in front of you.
Attentiveness isnโt always easy, especially in todayโs multi-media and fast-paced world. Sometimes you have to silence your phone, turn off the television, or face away from other distractions in order to give someone the respect and attention they deserve.
If you see Marli, tell her congratulations!
