Personal Statement
Hello everyone, my name is Nadeiah Howard and I am a Principal Honor Roll Student that will graduate from Venture Academy, Stockton, California in 2023. I have been playing club volleyball since I was 10 years old and I have fallen in love with it ever since. My mom encouraged me to start playing and she has been my greatest influence until this day. She constantly pushes me to become the best that I can be and continuously challenges me to never give up. With my six years of experience, volleyball has helped me enhance my leadership skills on and off the court. For example, when I was younger, I used to be very quiet and reserved. After volleyball, I learned how to communicate and talk at a higher and more confident level.
I am currently ranked first in my class out of 200 students with a 4.0 GPA. My goal is to receive Valedictorian and to further my education in Kinesiology and Sports Science. Academics are a huge part of my college decision as I would love to have the best academic support that fits my personality and learning comprehension. I am very hard working and coachable. I will try my hardest to put my team in the best position possible to win. I have always been very protective and loyal to my teammates which is why I believe I can be a good leader on and off the court.
