I always go out of my way to stand up for these kids, but I have wished there was a better way to help out. By being <br /> a youth Human Rights Commissioner, I would be able to reach out to and represent students at my school and in my <br /> community. <br /> What is your view of the role of this Commission/ Board Since middle school and high school are such defining periods for <br /> individuals' futures, it is critical that students feel safe and comfortable at school. A youth Human Rights Commissioner should <br /> serve as a liaison between community youth and the Human Rights Commission, making sure that youth in the area are <br /> properly represented and cared for. <br /> Any further information you would like the City Council to consider or that you feel is relevant to the appointment or <br /> reappointment you are seeking.: I have lots of leadership and volunteer experience that I have taken on over the past few years. I <br /> have twice been elected captain of the high school swim and dive team, and once for the lacrosse team. I have been the Senior <br /> Patrol Leader in my Boy Scout troop for three years, and recently built a rain garden for my church as my Eagle Scout Project. I <br /> am involved in three varsity sports, two extracurricular music ensembles, five service organization, and I maintain a 3.9 GPA <br /> with a rigorous schedule. I am fully prepared and eager to further benefit my community by serving on this board. <br /> 1 <br />
