Sophia does not give up as a learner even when the task feels challenging.  She loves to learn, and it shows in all that she does. Sophia is a listener, leader, and a learner. Sophia is eager to learn and solve problems. She shows perseverance when working on a new skill or task.  Sophia is a joy to have in class!

 

Getting to know…Sophia DeGennaro:

  • What motivates you to work hard? “It is fun to learn and respectful.”

 

  • If you were a super-hero, what powers would you have? “If I had a superpower it would be flying. I would like to fly because I can do loops and help people.”

 

  • Read a book or watch a movie? “My favorite movie is Moana, because I like her hair and her pet chicken.”

 

"Sophia is a leader in our classroom,” said Ms. Erin Doran, Sophia’s 3rd-grade teacher.  “She displays kindness and respect with her actions and words and is a friend to all.  Sophia's love for learning is contagious!”
