Student Nomination Story

In my first year of middle school 2020 it was really hard for me. Being on zoom/google meet made it really hard to focus. I had many problems with google meet, for example: My baby brother was born that year and he wouldn't stop crying. I had so many chores to do and so much stuff to take care of. I wasn't doing good that year. Then my father died. It was even harder for me to do google meet and focus. Ms. Strippoli brought together all of the teachers to try to cheer me up. She had them volunteer to put together a gift for me. She helped me with grades and she always said I was doing good. But the important part was how she helped me get back on my feet from 5th grade. Now in 7th grade I have made high honor roll or principal's honor roll, I don't know yet because they haven't given out the rewards yet. Ms. Strippoli was and is a very good teacher and a very nice one, especially to me since I wasn't one of her good students.
