Klein High School
“When I set foot in my first physics class in my life at Klein High School, I became immediately intrigued
by Mr. Robinson. His calm demeanor and passion for physics that oozed out of him was bestowed on his
students like me, after which we could not help but love physics just as much as he did. But for me, Mr.
Robinson did not just instill his craving for physics; he also pushed me to work harder and to get the most
out of my abilities. Whether I spent my time after school preparing for upcoming Decathlon competitions
or Academic Challenge, it was Mr. Robinson who urged me to try new and unique activities to diversify my
knowledge, so I would not be susceptible to carrying the title of a “one-trick pony.” So, as I leave Klein and
go off far away to college, I will always keep in mind the lessons that Mr. Robinson taught me as I tackle
life’s difficult challenges, wherever they may take me.”
