Learn MoreWhy They Love Being a Student
Ayden loves to solve puzzles and is a deep thinker. Once he gets into a subject he wants to know everything about it. At his core his curiosity of the world and how things work snowballs and as he learns more he wants to learn even more.
Favorite Subject & Why
Ayden's favorite subject is STEM. This pulls together so many of his strengths and allows him to do hands on application and testing of the things he knows. From his love of robotics and coding to his strength in math and science coupled with his engineering mind, it encompasses most of his passions in one.
How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals
A $20,000 award would mean that Ayden can pursue furthering his education in an area that he finds exciting. It could mean that he can attend the robotics camp he has been interested in and get coaching directly in subject that light him up. If awarded, Ayden can and will take the time to be thoughtful on the best way to utilize the money, but as his parent I can and will commit to allowing him to pursue his passions in his own way.
