What class do you find really engaging and why?: The class I find most interesting is math. Every year that I have had Mrs. Carlson as a teacher has been fun and engaging. She always encourages us to do the best we can and pushes us while still being able to have fun.

What are your career and post-graduation plans? What school(s) or other instruction, travel or endeavors do you have planned?: After graduation, I plan to attend a four-year university to major in nursing while also playing basketball.

What are your two favorite extracurricular, volunteer or community activities you participate in?: My two favorite extracurriculars are basketball and cross country. The memories and friendships that I gained from both sports helped me to get through high school.

Please share a moment, group event or activity at school that was meaningful or memorable: One of the most memorable moments was when our football boys won state for the first time. We were all so excited, and it brought the community together.

What is your hope for the future?: My hope for the future is to graduate college with my Bachelor of Science in nursing and become an ER nurse.
