WHAT MEMORIES DO YOU TAKE AWAY WITH YOU AS YOU LEAVE HIGH SCHOOL?

“My fondest memory of high school has to be from sophomore year when we won district. It was my favorite year from high school.”

WHAT ADVICE DO YOU HAVE FOR YOUR FELLOW STUDENTS?

“Manage your time, try to get a study hall because it will help you during the day to get your work done instead of waiting for after practice or after a game.”

WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS AFTER YOU GRADUATE HIGH SCHOOL?

“I plan to attend Texas A&M in Corpus Christi. I plan to major in Nursing and hopefully work in the emergency room or in a hospital in general. I want to be an ER nurse because my mom is a nurse. I got to grow up with her going to classes and seeing her work hard. It inspired me to be a nurse.”
