February Seniors of the Month for West Liberty-Salem Schools:

Veronica Wall

Parents: John and Danielle Wall

School Activities and Awards:

Color Guard, NHS, LINK Crew, Key Club, Spanish Club, and Science Olympiad.

I am also co-valedictorian of the senior class.

If I were principal for a day:

I would focus on making sure that every student has the opportunity to excel in their own talents, and be celebrated for those talents, whether it be sports, arts, or academics.

Favorite school memory:

Football games on Friday nights.

People who have been an inspiration to me include: All of my teachers and both of my parents.

Because: They have all dedicated their careers to helping educate the future generations and helped me immensely throughout my high school journey. My parents have also always provided a listening ear and guided me through the ups and downs of life, which I will always be grateful for.

Lately, I have been reading:

“The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes” by Suzanne Collins and “1984” by George Orwell.

My advice to parents:

Encourage your kids to always put forth their best effort, but also teach them that they’re allowed to relax and give themselves breaks.

My biggest regret:

Putting too much pressure and stress on myself to the point of burnout each year.

Next year I will be:

Studying aerospace engineering at either Rochester Institute of Technology, Purdue, Case Western, or Embry-Riddle.
