-I wrote for my county's newspaper last year/was selected to be on a board of high school journalists for that paper
-I'm editor in chief of my high schools newspaper
-I've been coaching youth soccer for three years and I'm a division coordinator
-I've been serving as a youth court advocate for minors who commit petty crimes for the past two, which means I work with a jury of other students to determine the proper sanctions for the minor
-I play varsity lacrosse, but I had to sit out almost the whole season last year because I needed surgery on both of my ankles.
- I tutor French</p>
