"Lenape has prepared me for success in so many different ways. I have taken 15 AP classes, all of which taught me to take charge of my own education. Through Lenape's classes, activities, students, and staff, I truly feel prepared for the future."
Activities: I have been in Smoke Signal, DECA, Class Council, and Interact for all four years. Within these activities, I am currently DECA's Vice President of Competition and Leadership, I have been the Smoke Signal's Editor-in-Chief since 2021, and I was Class President from 2020-2023. I have also been in National Honor Society since 2022 and Spanish Honor Society since 2021. I also just joined the Varsity Girls Bowling Team!

Community Service: Within Lenape, I'm involved in National Honor Society and Interact club, both of which I do various community service activities with (at least 2 per month). Outside of Lenape, I have volunteered every summer since 2018 at a daycare center I used to attend. I also write cards to children around the world with special needs, and I'm a math tutor. Additionally, this past summer, I organized an English tutoring program at a church in Taiwan my family goes to where we taught students aged 11-70 English communication skills that they can use in their everyday lives and on missionary trips.
