Stephanie Vazquez
Follow messageI am an extremely hard working, dedicated student. I have taken all honors core classes and three Advanced Placement classes in high school. I am president of the Future Educators of America and I was also president my Junior year and vice president my Sophomore year for that club. I am the vice president of the National Honor Society this year. I am also an active member of the English Honor Society, Math Honor Society, and Key Club. I volunteered at Kia Kidz, which is a summer camp for special needs children. I have volunteered in nine Blood Drives at my school. I have been in charge of coordinating five of these. Additionally, I have devoted my time to several other volunteer projects such as tutoring fellow students in math at my school, making sandwiches for the homeless, tending to the elderly, donating to a plethora of charity drives, and participating in a myriad of charity walks. Furthermore, I work at Kumon Learning Center tutoring children of all ages. I plan on being a math teacher when I grow up because I want to inspire and educate youth for many years to come.
