Impressive Enough that She was Going to Share it with all the OtherTeachers

Alex has been doing well lately. In his parent teacher conference Mrs. Carpenter raved about his mathematical and problem solving ability. In fact something that he did (she did not specify what to Jens) was impressive enough that she was going to share it with all the other teachers in the district at their math council. He is one smart panda.

In addition to being smart, he is also good and unfortunately that is less common than you would hope for. When Jens was watching Alex's friend Jacob and his kid brother at Chuck E Cheese Jacob took all the tickets from his brother. A different friend, Will, was using inappropriate language at locker soccer and then lied to Jens face about it. Not only does Alex not do these things, they clearly registered as the wrong way on his moral compass and that is good.
