Life is short, live like there is no tomorrow♥
Hey Y'all! So glad you're looking at my profile! I am Kristy-Renee. I was adopted a little over a month before my 16th birthday. I have 3 half sisters and 2 half brothers and a bunch of friends that I consider family. I got to an online school called COVA and I love it. I am in the Peer Mentor Club and the Yearbook club. I am very active in my classes and I have some great friends from my school. I am learning great time management skills and I am learning what it is going to be like in college. I am a music junky and I would love to be a music therapist, but my main goal is to teach 4th and 5th grade and then after a while of that going back to school for my masters and then teach special education. I love to help people! Ask anyone, I am always trying to make the world a better place. I am a strong believer of everyone no matter what is equal.

"Christian is very active in class and works hard to understand the concepts she is bbeing asked to learn. She is also a terrific peer mentor and always reaches out to fellow students who seem like they need a hug and an ear. In addition to her peer mentoring, she is very active in other positive social activities, both school sponsored and not. I highly recommend Christian as I know she will be an asset to any school she chooses to attend."

"Christian was a trustworthy volunteer. She worked directly with children and parents during the library's Summer Reading Program, and also assisted staff with programming. She was always punctual, a hard worker, and spirited during shifts. She quickly learned each task given and had an excellent rapport with library patrons of all ages. We will look forward to working with Christian in the future."
