Melouk said it is good to display good character because it allows students to make friends and take part in different opportunities.
"To be selected as a Rising Star is for all of the people to look up to and to be a good person all around."
While at TMSE, Melouk is a member of the school's math team and plays soccer.
Melouk said his favorite subject is math, his favorite sport is soccer and he loves to read books about Greek mythology.
