October 2017Personal Statement
I am the candidate for your team because I'm coachable and I'm a team player! Throughout my high school career during all of the sports I have played, and I have played most (volleyball, track and cross country, tennis, soccer, cheer and gymnastics and of course GOLF) all of my coaches have said and I quote... "if I could just clone KK, I would have the ultimate team". I gave 100+% and will give this and more because I love golf and have dreamed of playing golf in college!
I am an honor student and have ranked 3rd in my class for the last 3 years. I have taken the ACT and my most current score was 27 and I plan to take it again this year as my personal goal is to obtain a score of 30 or better. I have taken the most rigorous and challenging classes throughout my high school tenure and I am currently enrolled in 5 Advanced Placement (AP) classes my senior year. I belong to 4 honor societies (National Honor Society, Mu Alpha Theta, National Art Honor Society and Tri-M National Music Society...I have played the cello for 9 yrs). I am able to balance my academics and athletics and still participant in several community services organization and have received several awards for completing over 100 hours per year in community service acts with various service organizations.
I would be an awesome addition to your team because I am a natural-born leader, I am driven and focused on achieving my goals. I belong to several schools clubs and non-school service organizations and I am currently the Senior Class President and have served as the Freshman and Junior Class Presidents as well.
Most of all what makes me different is my heart...it's big and full of love for others and God! MY personal motto is F.I.T...First Is Third! I put God first, others second and myself third!
