Favorite Subject & Why
Hayden’s favorite subject is English, specifically literature and writing. She has loved to read and write since she was a toddler! She had volunteered at the library over the summer too. She chose to take APclasses because those were the ones that had summer reading and more opportunities to write. She loves to write essays that allow her to express her passions, feelings and thoughts. Her way with words and connection with others is strong. We know she is capable of great things through this!

$20,000 would be an amazing gift for Hayden. She has dreams of education beyond a bachelors degree. She has many goals and aspirations and we would love for her not to have a financial burden while she’s pursuing these dreams.
