What class in High School do you/did you enjoy the most?
The class I enjoy the most in High School is Yearbook. I love being able to take pictures of different events and then coming up with different designs/ideas. I also enjoy when Coach O brings us drinks from the Merc and our class does anything but work on the yearbook.
Who do you admire the most and why?
The person I admire the most is my Mom. She is the most selfless and caring person I know and she always puts other people before herself. She is always there when I need her and I know she will drop everything to be there for my sister and I. She is my biggest supporter and I know she will cheer me on in every stage of my life and I will forever be grateful to have such a great mom.
What teacher had the biggest influence on you and why?
The teacher that has had the biggest influence on me is Coach O. Not only is he my teacher but he has also been my Basketball and Track Coach for the past 4 years. He devotes all of his time to his students and players and I know he truly cares for each and every one of them and will do everything in his power to help us reach our full potential. If I need advice or someone to talk to I always know Coach O will be there and help me through tough decisions. He has taught me great life lessons and I know he will support me even after I graduate.
What is the one thing you will miss most about South Shelby?
One thing that I will miss about South Shelby is spending every day with my friends and classmates. I will also miss all of my teammates and playing High School sports.

What class in High School do you/did you enjoy the most?
*
The class I enjoyed the most was 4th Hour Ag Communications with Mrs. Parman. We got to plan and prepare a lot of fun events and have food parties quite often.
Who do you admire the most and why?
*
The people I admire the most are my parents. I admire my Dad because he is always willing to help anybody that needs it. He is always so understanding and shows up for everything my sisters and I do. He is also one of my favorite archery coaches. I admire my Mom because she is the perfect example of what it is like to love everybody. She is one of the strongest people I know, and my sisters and I's biggest cheerleader. I strive to be like both of my parents one day, and I am so blessed to be their daughter.
What teacher had the biggest influence on you and why?
*
The two teachers that influence me the most are both of my ag teachers, Mrs. Parman and Mr. Schmidt. While Mrs. Parman and I have only had one year together, she is truly one of the most inspiring people I know. She has taught me what it is like to be a real leader, and take charge when you feel it needs to be done. Mr. Schmidt has had to deal with me for quite some time, and he has taught me a lot during it. While he is good at teaching me about livestock and record books, he is also great at teaching me how to "build my character". Mr. Schmidt has taught me how to handle anything that comes my way, and handle it well. I am so grateful I got this time with both my my ag teachers.
What is the one thing you will miss most about South Shelby?
*
The thing I will miss about South Shelby is the feeling of home. Whenever you walk into the building you instantly feel welcome. All of the teachers do an amazing job of making everybody feel like they belong here. South Shelby has been my home for my whole life, so I will definitely miss it.
