Erin W: Citizen of the Month



Photo shows Erin playing her flute while making a brief presentation earlier this week about her instrument which included parts, mechanics, some scales, high and low notes and how it all fits into the case.

Today Erin W. was named the fourth grade citizen of the month. Here's what I wrote about her:


It is my privilege to designate Erin Wilson the Shorecrest fourth grade Citizen of the Month. Our school community is enriched by Erin’s character and effort.


Aristotle, the ancient Greek philosopher, once said, “It’s not always the same thing to be a good person and a good citizen.” But I believe that Erin’s values, hard work, humor, sense of fairness, and dependability combine to create both.


What’s more, Erin is a self-starter. She sees something that needs to be done and she hops to it. Erin befriends someone who needs a buddy, delivers effectively a presentation on an author/artist she finds inspiring, and takes seriously her class job.


Recently Erin was selected to share her thoughts with the visiting accreditation committee evaluating our school. She willingly gave up her time.


Finally, Erin is a creative person, a dedicated and talented musician and artist, and our world needs more such people. With a lively, informed, yet caring intelligence, Erin is a citizen-student of fine

character.
