Quote from teacher: “Eric subscribes to the idea that following your passions leads to success,” said Paul Moffitt, English teacher/Debate coach. “Whether he’s preparing a mock trial case, conducting scientific research, or rehearsing a debate speech, Eric pushed himself to do superior work. More importantly, however, he challenges himself to learn from his experiences and others’ feedback. He is always trying to improve. This trait, I believe, is the mark of a true scholar.”
