Whiz Kid: Anne Marie Rock

Patch Whiz Kid of the Week

Name:  Anne Marie Rock

Age:  14

School:

Accomplishment: Straight “A” Student, Jefferson Junior High School basketball player and Downers Grove Elite Volleyball setter. 

Key to Awesomeness: The key to Anne’s awesomeness is that Anne is driven to challenge herself to reach her knowledge potential, she is a hard worker and she has a great attitude toward learning. 

Anne has excellent listening skills and pays close  attention to others around her.   Ever since she was very little, she has been able to not only express respect and kindness toward the people around her but also has a tremendous awareness of the people around her. She soaks in knowledge to deliver what they expect and need. 

In the classroom, it manifests itself in delivering solutions to math problems and papers expressing an opinion.  At home, it results in a kind kid who constantly does things to show she cares for her family and others.
