I’ve attended Custer County School from preschool to 12th grade. I put 4 years into this purgatory (we all know it’s true) known as high school, but I can proudly say that I am who I am today partly because of my school.  High schools in pretty big joke. We are taught things like theContinue reading “Ode to CCHS”

Now that I’m a senior and I will be graduating soon, I always get asked the same questions. “Where are you going to college?”, “What are you going to study?”, and “Where do you see yourself five years from now?”.

As a kid, I would always imagine what I would be when I became an adult. Most of the time, I saw myself as a vet or a nurse, and I would play games based on those occupations. I would be Doctor Haylee, life saver of animals and people. It was around that time thatContinue reading “Literacy Narrative”
