To Whom it May Concern, 

I am privileged to have had Savannah Burrows in my classes for the last 3  years, including during the challenging Covid remote learning year. Even with during difficult times, I have witness her determination to do her best, her positive response to coaching, and her thoughtful consideration of every situation. 

 

Savannah has a very strong work ethic and fantastic art skills. She desires  to complete her work with integrity. Savannah is a creative soul that sees the  bigger picture of any situation. She has been my teacher’s assistant for my Studio  Art 1 class this year. Here she fine tuned her leadership skills. I have witness  many times in the last year Savannah’s wisdom beyond her years and school experiences. 

 

Often during my time with Savanah we would be discussing different ways  she could improve her art work. She also listened with respect and replied with  thoughtful comments. She was not afraid to view things from another person’s  perspective. Further Savannah has shown a great ability to kindly speak her  mind. If she did not agree with my suggestions Savannah stated her reasons in a  clear and logical manner. 

I know with all my heart and soul that Savannah has amazing things to do in  this life. I am excited to see what challenges she takes on. I would recommend  Savannah for any college scholarship. 

 

Sincerely yours, 

Terry Thompson, Fine Art Instructor
