Julius Romano is involved in a wide variety of activities, encompassing everything from robotics to drawing, swimming to playing the violin. His teachers describe him as a good role model, eager to help other students, and very motivated. Perhaps most striking is his commitment to reading, which he demonstrated last year when he advocated for his community library and helped to save it from being closed. He attended rallies, community town hall meetings, and wrote letters to local officials and politicians. He was even interviewed by the local television and radio news and the newspaper. For his efforts, he received a Hero Award from his State Representative.
