Eric Frisbey – Odyssey
I am writing to enthusiastically recommend Eric Frisbey for 104.3 student of the month . I have had the pleasure of teaching Eric Frisbey for the past academic year as a part of the Shepherd Odyssey program, where he has consistently demonstrated a strong work ethic, dedication, and a keen interest in learning.
Eric Frisbey is a model student who seldom misses class and is always prepared to engage in the day’s activities. Whether in the classroom with his Chromebook fully charged or in the lab equipped with his personal protective equipment (PPE) and tools, he exemplifies what it means to be ready to work. His preparedness not only sets a positive example for his peers but also enhances the overall learning environment.
One notable project that Eric Frisbey has put considerable effort into this year is the removal and disassembly of a continuously variable transmission. This project showcased not only his technical skills but also his ability to approach complex tasks with patience and determination. His meticulous attention to detail and problem-solving skills were evident throughout the process.
Overall, Eric Frisbey is a pleasure to have in class. His enthusiasm for learning and collaboration with classmates creates a supportive atmosphere that encourages everyone to excel.

Marin Haskin – Sacred Heart
It is my pleasure to nominate Marin Haskin for the 104.3 Student of the Month. Marin is a junior from Sacred Heart Academy in the Business Management program.
Marin’s work ethic is like no other. Marin tackles projects with enthusiasm and tenacity. She is an incredible leader who takes time to plan and organize before initiating a project. I know that whatever project Marin is a part of will be completed with the greatest care.
Her attitude, kindness and inclusion of others is something to behold. She is a great team player and people are drawn to working with her. Marin is encouraging to others and also a great source of inspiration.
Marin’s ability to balance a full school load, participate in a variety of extra curricular activities such as Business Professionals of America and volunteer her time to her school and community is quite impressive. Marin utilizes her photography skills to take pictures at all of the athletic events at Sacred Heart.
There is no doubt that Marin is going to be wildly successful based on her work ethic, drive, personality and compassion for others. Every day is an amazing day when Marin is part of the team.
