The November 2021 student of the month at Ignite Christian Academy (ICA) is Cesar Melendez, a freshman from South Carolina. A first-year student at ICA, Cesar enjoys playing basketball and has quickly learned to love online learning.
“Cesar has an excellent work ethic,” wrote science teacher Jacquelyn Yelton, who nominated Cesar was this month’s honor. “He actively communicates with his teachers to make sure he understands the content. When he comes to his whiteboard appointments, he is prepared and has questions ready. He is motivated to succeed academically, and I can tell by his work that he does his best. I am thankful to be his teacher!”
