Our LISD Super Kid Colton Aldermanโ€™s love of learning has launched this Westside Rocket into a new realm of imagination and exploration!

Colton, fourth grade, takes his pursuit of excellence and colors it with creativity. With a desire to turn concepts into products, he builds amazingly creative projects. Among them include puppets, animation, and complete Lego worlds! These activities require a persistence and commitment unique to Colton.

โ€œOnce he sets a goal, he puts action steps in place to meet his goal,โ€ Westside Elementary fourth grade teacher Laura Heine said. โ€œHe is an excellent example of pursuing your dreams and fulfilling your potential to the fullest.”

His transition to remote learning made easy; Colton allows his hard-work ethic in school to spill into home. As a self-led learner, he asks questions and creatively approaches topics of discussion.

โ€œHe relates his current learning to relevant aspects of the different ways that we are living life, including creating videos about how we can all contribute to making the world a healthier place for all of us.”

Three big bangs for our LISD Super Kid Colton Alderman for his unquenchable thirst for knowledge that makes him an extraordinary leader as a Westside Rocket!
