Personal Statement
My name is Madison Ellen Hime, and I will be a 2024 graduate of Highland High School in Highland, Illinois.
I am a student athlete and a major contributor for both my school and club volleyball teams. My desire is to continue my education at a university and receive an opportunity to participate in college volleyball as well.
I believe I am a very solid student, and although I have room for improvement, I am optimistic that the high standard of excellence expected within the Highland School District has prepared me to perform well in college. I have been fortunate enough to be a part of some great diversity and educational programs.
Athletically, I have been a major contributor on both volleyball teams for the past two seasons, and have experienced a great deal of success both individually and as a part of some great teams. Having grown up participating in team sports, I have learned how very important it is to know and perform my role to the best of my ability. I have been able to adapt and adjust to whatever role my coaches have asked of me to help the team from game to game across each season. My coaches have always encouraged me, and made positive comments regarding my ability to lead my team and execute my responsibilities within the plays.
I am confident that given the opportunity, I can earn a place as a contributor within a college volleyball program, while taking advantage of the excellent educational opportunities.
Thank you for your consideration.
