Why They Love Being a Student

I know my student loves learning because it opens up new opportunities for him to become anything he wants to be in this world. Because of education it's given him more creativity and options to become the amazing student that he is in today's America. My son thrives off of knowing he is able to teach other students what he learns and sharing with his friends is so important. Networking and communicating with teachers and friends and family is an amazing skill to have and he exemplifies each.

Favorite Subject & Why

My son's favorite subject I would say has to be science, with some type of chemistry. Including math, which he's amazing at!

How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals

My son's educational goals would be supported by the funding of $20,000 in the most amazing ways. Anything my son decides to do now or in the future is valuable to me and worth investing because of how capable he is. He wants to be a COP one day or EMT/ Firefighter but, he has other neat hobbies too. This funding allows him to invest into himself and helps with creating his own business (whatever he's choosing). Helping him get all the materials and equipment necessary. Plus funding college.
