SC Johnson 4th grader Alexis Aiello was recently honored by the Racine Unified School District Board of Education for her humanitarian efforts related to how she prefers to see people’s hearts.
In an essay describing how she embodies the lessons of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Aiello was described as  a girl who prefers looking into people’s hearts.
“(Alexis) embodies the spirit and philosophy of Dr. Martin Luther King because she looks at people’s hearts and nothing else. And even when those whose hearts are sometimes unkind – she sees them as a person even more in need of love!” her nomination reads.
