For Michelle Darguzas, teacher, how does this student's exemplary behavior illustrate the goals your school is pursuing? I have had the pleasure of teaching Bethanie both honors biology and honors oceanography. She is a hard-working and dedicated individual. Bethanie takes pride in her work and her education. She is one of the most conscientious students I have had in a very long time. She strives to learn and do the best to her ability.
