Interviews

Meet Noel, also known as “the Noelster.” Noel is a die-hard Yankee fan who has been coming to our school for four years. Noel, a fifth-grader, loves Science. Noel’s favorite Yankees are Derek Jeter and Mariano Rivera. One of Noel’s fondest memories of school is the day that the boys made their fort. Noel’s favorite thing about our school is that everyone is friends and they all get along; he also says we have great teachers. Noel loves to fix cars; so, he wants to be an auto mechanic when he grows up.

Noel’s peers think that he’s awesome, he’s fun to be around, funny, energetic, fantastic, hard-worker, kind, an outstanding young man.

Here’s what his teacher says: Noel is the class mayor. He is very diplomatic, and though he is quiet, the kids know he is fair. I have known Noel to be very respectful, very kind, and very helpful to me. I trust him and that alone is something a teacher really values in a child. Noel is a wonderful addition to our class—we would never be the same without him.
