Why They Love Being a Student

My daughter absolutely loves to learn new things, and she loves to come home and tell me random facts she remembers! She loves interacting with her peers, and she tries her best to be a good friend.

Favorite Subject & Why

Melody's favorite subject is definitely art! She is always drawing new characters up, and she always has a backstory for her art. I believe art is the easiest way to express how she feels when words are hard.

How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals

$20,000 would change everything for us. I am a single Mom, and I would definitely put it aside in an account so that when she is ready to advance her education in the future, she doesnt have to worry about having enough money for it.
