I want to take part in this trip because as someone who hated school from an early age, I realize that I would not have many of the opportunities that I have now if I had not had a strong and supportive educational system challenging me throughout middle and high school. While service and community building have always been a part of my education, it is only since coming to college that I truly understood the inextricable relationship that exists between the two. I look forward to learning more about myself, the students, and their educational experiences during our week in Gaston. I am an economics major, and while one of my favorite subjects is math, I also enjoy working with reading and writing skills.
