Teacher Comments:  

Mr. Takar: Elle Wiles is a remarkable student who I feel honored and blessed to teach. I have been amazed by her versatility as she excels in all areas of school. Whether it is writing, debating, listening, speaking, or other areas of school, she always does a great job in anything she does. Elle is an extremely positive person who always has a smile on her face and is always willing to push herself to do more and be more. Elle is a great listener with a heart of gold who will always improve and will always want to make a positive difference. When she graduates from school, it will be a bittersweet moment for me and for the whole school because we will dearly miss her, but we know that she will go onto do great things in her career. Elle is also someone who, I knew immediately after meeting her, will be able to make a positive and lasting difference to those lucky enough to meet her.
