Whiz Kid of The Week

Name: Willem J. Da Sylveira

Grade: 3rd Grade

School: 

Accomplishment: Willem has been nominated for PS10 "Student of the Week" eight times in three years. He has served as a Student Council member in the 2nd grade and  is known to be very kind to everyone. Willem gets straight A's, plays soccer, piano,  speaks French, and he loves to read. He has performed piano at the Lincoln Center for Jazz  for the last two years!

Key to awesomeness:   He wakes up reading and goes to bed reading and has since the age of four!  His thirst for knowledge and inquisitive nature are nourished daily with at least one or two books -- the more complex the better! Harry Potter and Percy Jackson novels suit him best.
