Daniel Ghaly 9 grader at Hurst Junior High th Zachary Tidwell 11 th grader at Trinity High School Being ranked second in my class. I worked very hard to form productive study habits to better prepare me for tests. I have raised my GPA and I have kept all of my exemptions, and so far it has been a very successful wrestling season. It’s not necessarily a hidden talent but I love playing saxophone. My band director Mrs. Dominguez is a great teacher and has really exceled the speed at which we learn. If I could pick any talent I would want to be like Google and know the answers to everything! I wish everyone was provided with decent living conditions. No matter what country you are in, or your financial situation, everyone deserves the same standard of living. I wish people wouldn’t discriminate against others just because the way they look, talk, or act is different. It’s really hard to choose because I have so many! I would say - Mrs. Dominguez, Mr. Groening, and Mr. Girau, because they have all been able to bring out the best in me and help me reach my highest potential. Coach Clark and Coach Lynes have really helped motivate me to be the very best version of myself in and out of the classroom. I am definitely taking the PSAT, and also focusing on preparing for band. I hope to also relax and catch up on sleep! I will be taking summer school for my art credit. I might get a job and save up some money, and also relax! 19
