Some of the reasons Jackson’s classmates chose him, in their words:
“He is nice and funny.”
“He makes me laugh, and he helps me do my work.”
“He lets me play basketball with him. He never does anything mean and is always kind and respectful.”
“He makes me laugh every day.”
“He’s fun to play with, and he never argues.”
“He is a good friend. He helps me if I don’t know how to do something, and he helps me when I’m sad.”
His teacher, Mrs. Stewart, says: “Whether Jackson is communicating with his peers or teachers he always brings the prefect balance of respect and humor. We can always count on him to pick someone up when they are down and help when they need it. We are so lucky to have Jackson as part of our GJE family. Thank you for being who you are, keep it up."
