Challenges Of Moving School

Challenges offer a person the grit and fight that is needed to get through life. I am no stranger to challenges throughout my life I have faced countless different challenges that force me to adapt and grow as a person.

Overall my past has made me who I am today and for that I look back upon these challenges with a smile knowing that I conquered them
