Below are some thoughts from MASC/MAHS Board of Delegates member Rachel Roe, a senior at Livonia Churchill High School.

As a senior in high school, I have done a lot of growing up over the past four years. I’ve had many new experiences, I’ve made long-lasting friendships, and I’ve had opportunities that I would have never expected in a million years. I’ve made wonderful memories, but there are also things that I wish never happened. But the most important realization that I have made is that character is more than just a nine letter word. Character is what has defined me, and separated me from a lot of my peers. Character is the one thing that I will always stand true.
