To Whom It May Concern:
th
It is my pleasure to recommend Sophie Cravea. During her 10 grade year, I
taught Sophie in an integrated humanities class, World Studies, which
incorporated English/Language Arts and World History. We maintained a Riley Johnson
relationship since then, and have cooperated in a variety of activities. Principal
Sophie excels academically. She is meticulous and thoughtful in her Susan Miller
approach to studies, and works well within teams. She has a quiet Assistant Principal
leadership style that brings out the best in others. When students had an
opportunity to reflect on their team members efforts after a project, 920 Yount Street
students described Sophie as making them feel more confident in their Napa, CA 94559
abilities and contributions, and as someone who could keep the team
organized through communication and encouragement. Sophie particularly P: 707.259.8557
shined on a challenging project related to the themes within Lord of the F: 707.259.8558
Flies and a study of various revolutions throughout history. She created a

Sophie has been recognized for academic excellence as the recipient of the
schools Digital Media and Spanish Student of the Year awards.
Furthermore, she won an award and scholarship as a finalist for her entry in
the Untold Civil Rights Stories essay contest sponsored by Asian
Americans Advancing Justice.
Sophie is active beyond the classroom as well. She is a long-time
competitive bowler, ranked as the No. 1 female on her team. She also
serves on the board of representatives for the bowling league. She works
everyday after school caring for children at HealthQuest, and carefully
manages her time to ensure her studies arent compromised.
Over the years Ive known Sophie, I have grown to respect her resilience,
maturity and poise. She has faced tremendous personal challenges related
to family illness and instability. Despite these struggles, she has remained
focused, kind-hearted, open-minded and determined to succeed. She treats
others with fairness and brings a sense of fun and creativity to the tasks she
takes on.
I whole-heartedly give Sophie my highest recommendation. I know she will
excel in any field she pursues, and she will be a positive asset to any college
community she joins.
