It is difficult to find the wording to express the character of Ms. Via, but, only because there is
so much to say. Simply stated, she possesses the qualities necessary to succeed at whatever
path she chooses. Sierra sets high standards for herself and is determined to reach them. Her
hard-work, focus and determination sets her apart from her peers. She has maintained a
membership in the National Honor Society for three years. While pursuing academic success,
Sierra is also active in her school community. She has been a member of the Girls Tennis team
for four years, where she plays doubles. She has volunteered her time, working the annuals
DAHS Souper Bowl, the Trick or Treat for DAHS Families in Need, and donating blood during
school blood drives.
Within the Art Department, Sierra is considered an example of what effort and dedication look
like. She takes criticism in a mature manner. She listens to recommendations and takes action
to improve her work, while maintaining her artistic integrity. She can be depended upon to
offer assistance and support to struggling students and to be a source of encouragement within
the classroom. She is secure in her abilities and leads by example, without her even knowing
it. She eagerly assists her teachers in preparing materials, hanging displays and participating
in critiques.
Though our department will feel a significant loss upon her graduation, I offer my full
recommendation of Sierra Via. I urge you to consider her application for the Computer
Animation program and would be pleased to discuss her qualifications further, as she will prove
to be an asset to the institution that gains her.
Sincerely,
