Diego

Age: 8 The Six Pillars of Character: Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring, Citizenship
Grade: 2
School:

Heritage Elementary School, Tulare City School District

Pillar: Caring

First-grade teacher Mrs. Valenzuela says, "Diego is a caring individual. His concern for others was evident when I witnessed him one morning racing another student. Diego lost the race, not because he couldn't win, but because he did not want to see the other student upset."
