I have been able to grow and become a confident leader in all that I do. I have grown academically, which I feel has contributed to my success in all I do. There are parts of my school which I would like to change. I would like to have better variety of lunch choices, offer outside food for example Chick-Fil-A. I would like to have more Pre-AP and IB classes offered.

I have had a great couple of years at Little River high school. I did find some difficulty with the lack of teachers preparing me for college in more than one or two subjects. The food was amazing, I always looked forward to crispito and chicken nugget day, as well as every football and basketball game. Although I wish more effort from teachers and administration especially was put into raising our school spirit.
