Michael Dominguez
Seventh Grade, Ernest R. Graham K-8 Academy
Early this school year, Michael and his family lost their home to a fire. It has been very challenging for him as well as his family, yet he remains committed to his studies and on staying positive. Despite enduring such difficult circumstances, Michael consistently demonstrates kindness and responsibility towards others. He is always willing to help his classmates—whether its assisting with their work, guiding a lost student, or helping a peer find their materials, you can always count on Michael to be there for others. He is often the first to notice when someone needs help and does not hesitate to assist right away. Michael embodies resilience as he focuses on persevering while supporting and caring for the wellbeing of others.
