What do you enjoy most about school?
“The thing I enjoy most about school is competing in athletics. It is fun to compete with peers because you create friendships amongst each other, grow together, and win together. When competing with other students, you make a lot of memories and get to know the people on your team. When participating in athletics, you also develop relationships with coaches that have helped you and made an impact in your high school career. Athletics are a big part of my life and some of the best memories I have had in school are because of activities I participate in.”
