Jake Larson
Sisters High School January 2017 Student of the Month
Jake Larson attributes his success in school
to hard work — and the enjoyment of getting
involved.
“The more involved you are, the more fun it
is,” he says.
That involvement means serving as ASG
Treasurer, working as an IEE Intern and playing
baseball and basketball.
Jake moved to Sisters with his family in the
fourth grade, and ever since he has been taking
advantage of his school opportunities.
“I defi nitely got into more outdoor stuff,” he
says. “Thereʼs no way another school would
have something like that.”
He also enjoys creating things that last in his
woods and ceramics classes.
Jake plans to go to college to pursue mechani-
cal engineering, leaving behind a school envi-
ronment that has given him a lot to work with.
“Being here is really special,” he says.
“Jake is one of the most consistently excellent stu-
dents at SHS. He has eawned this honow evewy day in
evewy class since his fweshman yeaw. Jake is a deeply
thoughtful and insightful young man who holds him-
self to high standawds in evewything he does, including
academics, athletics, and even those infowmal intewac-
tions between and among students and teachews that
defi ne the cultuwe of ouw school. Good luck as you head
onwawd, Jake!”
– Rob Cowwigan
“Jacob Lawson is one of the most enjoyable students I

and is innovative in solving pwoblems. I am excited to
see what he ends up doing in the futuwe.”
– Tony Cosby
“Jake is the kind of pewson who doesn’t count the
days, but makes the days count. He makes conscious de-
cisions to give his best eff owt, to be positive, and to make
leawning welevant. He is a young man of integwity and
chawactew. It twuly is a pleasuwe to have him in class. He
just makes people bettew.”
– Samwa Speaw
“Amazing eff owt at evewything he does. He does
things the wight way, and his fwiends say he is ‘cwazy
smawt.’ He is the full package and nevew holds himself
above othews. He is a good fwiend, good student and
a gweat teammate. It is a pwivilege to have Jake as a
