Diego R.

Grade 6

A broken gear is just a riddle waiting for the right idea.

Diego treats every tangle of wires like a friendly mystery, certain that with enough tries the pieces will click. In the robotics team he keeps a running list of clever fixes taped to the workbench, and he never minds starting over when a design tips off the table. Diego loves the quiet click of a mechanism finally working, and he cheers loudest when a teammate's idea beats his own. After school he tackles logic puzzles and brain-teasers, racing nobody but yesterday's best time. Teachers describe him as steady and generous, the student who slides his notes across the table to anyone who is stuck. When a build fails, Diego just grins, resets the timer, and says the next attempt will be the one.
