Each year, Gonzaga receives hundreds of applications. In those applications, I’m sure you’ve read about students who are athletic, enthusiastic, energetic, interactive with their teachers, love learning outside the classroom, or who are students who speak many languages. I strive to be a combination of all these things, and more. I am a student that excels both inside and outside the classroom.

As well as trying my best in school, I also am friendly, charismatic, and strive to be friends with everyone. I am also able to get along with everyone, seek the value in every friendship, and want to maintain them.
As a student, my job is to work hard and do the best I can. In seventh grade, all my hard work paid off when I got five teacher awards. A teacher award is for the student that has worked the hardest, has given the best effort, and made the biggest improvement in their grade. After winning five of these awards in Science, Math, Religion, Physical Education, and English, I was motivated to continue excelling in class. This made me feel like I stood out because I may have not been the smartest in the class, but I showed that I pushed myself more than anybody in the
