I have been active in my community throughout my entire life‚ but before high school‚ I hadn’t realized how integrated community service was in my life. It is such an integral part of my life‚ and I honestly didn’t know that it was not something everybody just did. I hope to continue working as a volunteer on my campus or in the local community.

dignity means being respected for who you are and what you believe in. That’s something that can be done in both big and little ways.

We also looked at PLAN score data to look at current students’

I have been a student at Americus-Sumter High School for four semesters‚ and over the course of my stay I have grown and learned more than I thought possible.

Going through the nursing program has taught me so much more than stuff about medical terminology‚ it has taught me how to eventually
