Why do you believe the star student athlete should be recognized?

Taylor ❤️ is an amazing kid with a great heart. She’s always there to cheer on the next, her team or not. She has accomplished a 4.17 GPA her freshman year and the start of her sophomore year. Taylor ❤️ was able to get her varsity letter as a freshman in pole vaulting and track. She helped take care of me during this time when I had back surgery and she is also very self-motivated and dedicated and her grades are super important to her and she strives to be the best that she can be and all that she does. She is very selfless, and always helps out anybody that needs help has taken CPR classes because she wants to start to babysit. She’s in the National Honor Society and she does volunteer hours for school.

What's one thing you want everyone to know about the star student athlete?

Taylor ❤️ works very hard to accomplish what she’s already accomplished and so I think it would be nice for her to be recognized for her hard work and dedication and her heart.

Keep up the great work, Taylor 10th!
