Elma Peco '18 Recruiting Profile

I am the package deal. 

Not only am I a great athlete but also an excelling student who has always made Honor Roll and gotten a Scholar Award. In class I help others struggling so that they can be successful too. I started taking AP classes since sophomore year and been taking multiple ever since.  Going above and beyond I took classes over summer so that I could have as many credits as possible before graduating. 

Leadership is another aspect of me.  For the past two years I have been the President of German Club one of the biggest clubs at my school with events happening monthly. On my school swim team and club team I lead the team in stretches, warm ups, and work outs.  In marching band I am part of the color guard. I am one of the color guard members that leads practice and sectionals before and after school. This year the band won state and the color guard won best color guard throughout the season. 

 I have been in track ever since 7th grade and competed in long distance. Having a lot of experience lead me to being one of the best runners at my school. I joined cross country this year in order to be in the best shape for track and ended up being the top runner. When I have a passion for something I make sure to devote my time to it because I am always dedicated and motivated to do the best. I put in work right now so that I can thank my future self for goals I have achieved. 

Lastly, my goal in life is not only be successful but also to help others in need. This is why I want to be a dentist so that I can aid those who need it. Personally I love smiling and making other people smile however some people aren't happy with their smile. By becoming a dentist I will make sure no one is afraid to show the world their beautiful smile.  When other people are satisfied with themselves then I am satisfied as well.
