Quote from teacher: “An old cliché exists that says, ‘If you need something important done, ask someone who is busy.’ For senior, Seth Kirchner, that axiom fits him perfectly,” said Dave Sontag, counselor. “He is as polite and genuine as any student who has walked through the doors at Jefferson High School. By being ranked in the top 20 percentacademically in his class, Seth is separated in many other areas other than the academic spectrum. He is good natured, personified humility, and strives to be a quality person.” According to physics teacher, Philip Speare, “Seth displays all the qualities of a successful young man. He is the first person at Jefferson to be a physics independent study so he can excel further. At the same, he can prep and run a quality lab for the general physics students.”
