March 19 Spotlight: Tv’yrian Praylo
Respect, Courtesy, and Sportsmanship all come to mind when Tv’yrian Praylo is mentioned.
A 5th Grader at Southern Pines Elementary – every time he speaks to someone, “Yes, Sir” or, “Yes, Ma’am,” are most certain to follow.
Tv’yrian somehow finds time to squeeze golf into his schedule that includes, baseball, basketball, and football. More importantly, he manages to excel in the classroom and complete his homework before heading to any of these events.
Tv’yrian can also be found at every one of our donor events, chatting away with any adult he can find. He has taken the Life Skills of Meeting and Greeting people and used it to help him become a social butterfly, even though he is naturally quiet and reserved!
