Dear Judges, Since senior year started and even before it started, had me feeling anxious about what was to come. Worrying about deadlines for the project, how well my project will look, but most importantly, how soon it will all end. The excitement and fear that goes into being a senior is much more than I thought it would be. I wasn’t much of a volunteering person before my senior year. I was ,without a doubt, an introvert. But over time, I got myself to get out of my box and step into doing new things. I was lazy in the past. I felt that I had everything being handed to me. My sophomore year taught me wrong. After that I had to push myself to be successful, go out and do more. The jobs I chose to do helped my personality grow and change. They put me into situations I normally would never have put myself into. It helped me grow relationships with the younger students and the community. I’m happy to say the senior project helped me improve as a person and I will carry on what I learned from it with me in the future. A big thank you to all the judges who took time out of their lives to help with this project. I appreciate you taking the time to read through my portfolio and to hear my presentation. I’d also like to thank my senior advisor, Kaitlin Thomas, for taking her time to help me with all the deadlines and the work I’ve done. Marshall Ward
