Here's a note from our Winner-   

My name is Nissi Xavier. I am an eighth grader at Magsig middle school, in Centerville Ohio. I love to be involved in different activities and events! At school, I am involved in many clubs and activities such as speech and debate, orchestra, volleyball, art club, student council, student ambassadors, and more. Outside of school some of my hobbies include volleyball, reading, and playing my violin. I am also a 2nd degree Black Belt in Taekwondo.

Volunteering is a major part in my life. I am part of a group at our local library that hosts events and fundraisers, called TAB (Teen Advisory Board). I also volunteer monthly at a senior living facility. A small group of friends and I sing songs and play music on our instruments for the seniors. It never ceases to put a smile on my face! I also volunteer at my church on Sundays at the nursery. Giving back to my community is a major aspect of my upbringing, so I enjoy doing my part to make the people around me happy.

I know it’s far away, but when I graduate high school, I would like to go to med school and eventually work in the medical field, specifically as a dermatologist.

Throughout my middle school career, my favorite subject has always been social studies. I love learning about our past and current day events! I would just like to say I would not be where I am today without the many influences in my life such as my faith, teachers and friends – who inspire me and make me aspire to be the best version of myself possible.

One of my favorite verses from the Bible is Proverbs 3:5-6…Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths. This verse never ceases to humble and remind me that all my success comes from God!

Last but not least, I would like to thank my parents for always encouraging me and telling me I can succeed in anything and everything I do.
