One of Charlie’s superpowers is the ability to strategize and problem solve, whether he’s throwing a pass in football, creating a marketing strategy for a DECA business project, or representing his peers as class president.
Charlie’s other superpower is his commitment to inclusion, in sports and in life. Charlie is a leader in the school Unified program and Minnesota Special Olympics. He believes that his differently abled peers deserve respect and acceptance. Charlie is a friendly, well-liked guy, and his classmates elected him Homecoming king.
This fall, Charlie will attend the University of Florida, majoring in biology. He hopes to pursue a career in medicine to help others.
In his free time, you might find him boating on the lake or watching a movie [“StepBrothers” is his favorite]. Charlie also likes Legos. He’s building a replica of the Colosseum —- with over 9000 Lego pieces! “I’m only 6 or 7 hours into it,” he said.
So I guess his third superpower is persistence.
