Why They Love Being a Student

She is incredibly smart and I think she is wired to learn. She enjoys school for socializing and interacting with her friends as much as learning.

Favorite Subject & Why

Math and my musical theater (if that counts as a subject). She has always loved math and does very well with it. Musical theater is more of a hobby for her, but she loves singing and acting. She usually has her role memorized before starting rehearsals.

How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals

She wants to go into forensics when she is older. (Or be on Broadway!) $20,000 would definitely be a nice start to her higher education and achieving her dreams. She definitely has big ones.
