“Saul is an exemplary student who demonstrates respect, responsibility and integrity,” members of the selection committee said. “He enjoys learning and works hard on every single task or assignment he is given.”
According to the release, Verduzco-Amezcua also participates in the Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID) program.
