Kai V.

Grade 7

Plan the moves, test the moves, then trust your teammates.

Kai loves a good plan, whether it is the wiring diagram for a robot arm or the opening strategy for a tabletop campaign. On the robotics team he keeps the group organized, breaking a big build into small jobs so everyone has a clear part. Kai stays calm when a motor stalls at the worst moment, talking the team through a quick fix with steady good humor. Away from the lab he gathers friends for strategy games, where he is famous for generous alliances and graceful losses. Thoughtful and team-minded, Kai cares more about the group finishing strong than about taking the credit. Classmates say he is the one who remembers to celebrate a small win, pausing the work just long enough for a round of well-earned high fives.
