"A humble, gentle, unassuming character, who demonstrates excellent citizenship in his interactions." "Effortlessly transitioned into our class and is a responsible member of our school community." "All of the teachers have been passionate. I love how they believe in me and strive to help me reach my full potential." Reiss Family Scholarship recipient 04 TFS Mark and Kristen Bechara have been a part of the TFS communi since 2018, when their son, Elias, joined our West Campus branch in JK. With Elias now thriving in his second year, and their daughter Isabella hopefully joining in 2020, the Bechara family has displayed an outstanding level of commitment to TFS. In the fall of 2018, Kristen joined the TFS Foundation Board and the family made a major gift to support the Entrance Scholarship program. Providing access to education is important to Mark and Kristen, who founded the Eliahu Cedars Foundation in the Philippines, which provides students with access to scholarships and mentorship opportunities. We are immensely grateful to the Becharas for their incredible generosity and willingness to give so much of themselves to TFS. TFS ENTRANCE SCHOLARSHIPS Mark, Elias, Kristen and Isabella
