Go Edgewood! Congratulations Girls!

Our student spotlight shines this week on a 5th grader, Sahar Khashayar. She hails from the city of Laguna Niguel, a few miles south of Edgewood. She has a sister, Parisa, who is a student in Mrs. Brown's first grade class.  

Sahar has been a student at Edgewood since joining Mrs. Escutia's class in second grade. Sahar is a very dedicated student who excels in all her academic disciplines.  She is placed in both Advanced Math and Advanced Reading, studying Math with Mrs. White and Reading/Literature with Mr. Williamson. Sahar counts Math and Science as her two favorite subjects, she enjoys Mrs. White's challenging - yet hands on investigative Science class. Sahar has been, and currently is, a recipient of Edgewood Campus's Director's Honor Roll. 

She has served Edgewood as a 4th grade representative to ASB. She counts the 5th grade trip to Catalina - CIMI as her favorite field trip. She especially enjoyed the CIMI daytrip where we kayaked to another part of the island and spent the day engaged in beach and water activities.
Outside of the classroom Sahara is active in extracurricular activities. Her favorite hobbies are playing the piano, reading, writing, and enjoying Wii. Playing the piano since the age of five, music is an important part of her life. One of her piano teachers is our own Miss Harper, with whom she spent a year studying. This school year, she took up studying Violin with Miss Tse. With the arts, and with the quiet and studious pursuits of reading and writing, Sahar finds time to feed the physical part of life with athletics. She has played soccer in Laguna Niguel for the past six years, and she has also enjoyed being on a swim team. 

Sahar has a very ambitious dream for her career future. Because of her love of literature and writing, she aspires to be an author. Math and Science also ranking in high esteem has her setting her sights on being an astrophysicist. I can see her combining both pursuits into a lucrative and bright future. In a few years, look for a well published astrophysicist and remember, she is one of our very own from Edgewood. 

As her teacher, I can attest to her drive, her ambition, and her academic talent. Sahar is a wonderful student, one that I am proud to teach. Observing her these past several months I can attest to the fact that when she has her mind set on a goal that she plans to achieve it.
