As well, Karley demonstrated a \willingness to support the school’s extra-curricular activities involving the organizing of the Terry Fox jrun and the planning for the Jr. High options and Flex Fridays.

It jwas very evident to me through her verbal and non-verbal communication that she has a definite “love” x this discipline. I shared that I wish I had Karley during my high school years and how she would jhave made a very positive impact on my English experience.
