Hey guys. My name is Andrew and I'm going to be a senior at Skyline High School. I'm energetic and easy to talk to. During the school year I'm busy with Choir and performances that I do with my voice teacher. All year I am in training for the track season where I throw the javelin. This year I was seventh in King County for javelin and alternate to State Solo and Ensemble Competition. This summer I attended the Ironwood Throwers Camp. I have Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and a learning disability in reading and writing. Accommodations, like extra time on tests, have been very helpful. My favorite subjects are math, science, and choir. I hope to major in vocal music or engineering and throw Javelin in college.

I want to study engineering, music/music theory, and international business when I go to college. I am looking to go to the University of Washington or Whitworth. My biggest accomplishment this year was making it into the highest concert band at my school.

My name is Amanda. I was born in Kennewick, Washington where I have lived all of my life. I'm an only child who in my younger years was lonely, but now I enjoy the quiet time. In 4th grade I had my first of two leg operations. Afterwards I was able to walk without falling quite as often. In middle school since I was not very mobile I did the next best thing; I managed the school's dance and soccer teams which was a lot of fun because I got to play with the school's stereo system. When I started high school, a friend got me into the art club which I have been in ever since. I've been publicity manager and vice president. This year I got two Pride Inside awards and was accepted into the National Honor Society.

Hello to all!!! My name is Julie. I am 17 and a senior at Cascade High in Everett. I like choir, math and art. I am a member of the National Honor Society. I have three brothers and a sister; I am the oldest. My disability is spina bifida. I enjoy hanging out with friends, listening to music, playing on the computer, and reading. I went to my first concert to see Sugar Ray and Matchbox 20. I was in the front row and Mark McGrath, the lead singer of Sugar Ray, came down and kissed me twice. They also sent me a little package for my birthday about a month later. Sugar Ray rocks!!! I haven't decided what I want to do after I graduate but I know DO-IT will steer me in the right direction.

Hi. My name is Makenna. I attend Bellingham High School in Bellingham, Washington. I am 17 years old and will be a senior in the fall.

To accomplish this goal I plan on attending Whatcom Community College and then a 4-year university. I have Cerebral Palsy and a learning disability, but thanks to the patience of my parents, teachers, and tutors I have been able to overcome both of them. During this last semester I earned all As except for one A-.

My name is Ashley. I go to Nova High School in Davie, Florida and will be entering the 12th grade in the fall. The classes I really enjoy are history, drama and science.
