The best parts of my high school is I like to get involved in various activities and I like volunteering with the special needs children. I am also a cheerleader and I enjoy this a lot. I do take the harder classes and like to be challenged. I would like things to be changed where the teachers talk more and we didn't use the computer computers as much.

I participate in swim. I am taking Spanish 2 and I am going to take all four years of that language. I was in track for a year. My GPA is 3.5 but is at an average of 3.3. I am in my second year of ceramics (advanced ceramics) and I am going to be taking my third year of ceramics in 11th grade (studio ceramics).
