I would like to continue my education in the field of criminal justice, and more specifically criminal pathology or forensics. I am in the process of completing the Criminal Justice program at my technical school (Worcester Technical High School) as well as completing my GREs through my home school, Stephen Decatur. I have been a competitive cheerleader for the past 4 years. My level 8 gymnastic background had prepared me with strength for basing, and body awareness for the level 5 advanced tumbling skills. I am now working on level 6 tumbling cheer skills. My father’s kidney transplant in Jan of 2020 through the covid pandemic, has shown how I am able to persevere in my schooling and athletic programs even through difficult times. I am looking forward to this 2021 competitive cheer season to showcase our ever-growing gym and high level of competitive cheer. Avery Beckelman
