A Note from Ms. Goodson, Uriel's Teacher

Uriel is an apprentice in a college advisory program at my school called OneGoal. I have had the pleasure of working with him as his college advisor these last four months but have seen him shine in so many capacities at our school over the years. He comes from a family with strong values and prides himself in taking care of his family and his community. Uriel works tirelessly with various organizations within our school and the surrounding community. He juggles his course work and familial obligations while pursuing opportunities to help those in need. Uriel has a passion for public service and seeks the training necessary in the business field to retain skills in business management and finance. He seeks out opportunities on his own, without prompting, working with administration and parents in our building and neighboring political affiliations in his district to meet budgetary needs. The work he participates in is solely voluntary. Uriel is genuine in his selflessness and decisive in his want for growth in his community.
