Whiz Kid's Accomplishment:  Selected as Student of the Month for her cooperation and leadership.

Whiz Kid's Key to Awesomeness (what made him/her successful?):  Keo has been a role model for her peers since kindergarten. It is a pleasure to have her in class because she is not only conscientious, but cooperative.  She is looked up to from her fellow students for her attitude towards her learning, her good behavior and her organization and study skills.  There was no doubt in her teacher’s mind that she would be the first student of the month in her class.
