He is very excited to be back in the school and to see all of his friends. Nerek says that seventh grade is "pretty easy" and that he really likes his teacher. Nerek has recently really showed an interest in drawing . He is on the baseball team and he also loves to play football with his friends after school.

Nerek is 16 years old and lives in NJ

Nerek is the oldest of four siblings. He loves being the oldest and does a great job setting a good example for all of his siblings. Nerek enjoys school and does his best in everything that he sets his mind to. He enjoys being with his friends and sometimes struggles with staying focused and motivating himself when he is working independently. Nerek is a very good kid who is going to go on to do very awesome things! Nerek enjoys playing outside when it is nice and sunny out and also really enjoys reading. Nerek's favorite food is chicken fingers and fries. He says his favorite place to get chicken fingers and fries is at baseball games. Nerek, his brothers, and his resource dad have been going to baseball games in the spring and summer since the boys have been placed in their current resource placement, almost 2 years ago.
