Me

Where I started in school: Struggling with classes, having people tell me I would need an Independent Education Program and recommending different special degrees to my parents. Having one teacher surprised I was able to even read.

Where I am Now: Almost All A's, an ACT scholarship to East Central Community College, a great football player, and someone with aspirations to join the Air Cavalry.

It's hard to believe I went from this kid who was told he would need special needs and wouldn't be able to graduate regularly to being with some of the smartest kids in my class as I received my scholarship.
