In Steve's eleven years at Park, he has proven that he is eager to undertake any task and see it through. For this, his classmates elected him as the president of the Senior Class. In school, Steve is a hard and determined worker. He strives hard to uphold his ideals. People who think that Steve is a quiet bump on a log are mistaken.
