How will your high school experiences help you in the coming years? My years in high school will help me because the amount of ups and downs through sports and difficult classes has taught me to never give up, and things can only be bad for so long.

Fondest memory of high school? Winning state baseball my freshman year.

Which teachers have had the biggest impact on you and why? The teacher who had the biggest impact on me is my PE teacher Mrs. Bliven because she has always been the teacher I could go talk to about anything.

Who is your role model and how did they influence you? I would say my role models are my parents because they have displayed and showed me how to be myself, and also treat others.

What is special about your high school? I would say our school is special by the student group and staff. Because as a school, the people around you are always encouraging and wanting the best for you.

If you go back to when you were a freshman, what advice would you give yourself? I would tell myself to always be yourself, put your trust in God, and if you’re going to do something you might as well be the best you can be.
