![“When I was on my vacation to Europe, we were going to my great-grandparents' houses in Germany [and] learn[ing] about their life before the World War. [It] taught me the importance and the value of what my great-grandparents did to start my family in America. My grandfather was a policeman. He works for [the] major case squad, but he's been [the] police chief of Olivette. He’s taught me what it takes to be a noble citizen. My grandma has positive energy. [She’s] taught me to see the good things in life. [Their advice has allowed me to] be myself and enjoy life more.”

![“I know I keep talking about it, but it's been the big thing on my mind, obviously, learning how to use an embroidery machine. I've never done anything like that, [I] continue improving my skills with Canva and the heat press that we're gonna be using, and I'm gonna get a big vinyl printer and stuff. [We will] learn how to use that, what we can do with that. So all those things, it's gonna [be] the excitement of, like, being slightly terrified of learning the new stuff, but then also knowing that whenever I do learn, it's gonna be really cool.”

![“My relationship with my religion has a huge impact on my life, though it may not seem that it does. It helps me to make my everyday decisions and reflect on them, and it's bettered me as a person. [It] made my community more comforting, because I focused on myself in my relationship with my religion, and it helped me to gravitate towards the people who helped me to do so. Even if something goes wrong, my religion helps me to realize that I will have an opportunity to change it. If I don't, I don’t you can't expect something to happen if you don't attempt to change it.” -Ava Foley, 10](https://www.chsglobe.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/IMG_8460-e1765742565827-1200x757.jpeg)
