Earlier this year, I was rewarded with the engraving of my name on The Scholarship Cup at Coshocton High School. Each year, the student that is number one in the graduating class has their name engraved on this award which is presented during the scholarship ceremony. This award means a lot to me because it is my greatest accomplishment to date, and is something tangible that signifies the amount of work I put into getting to where I am today. Likewise, the cup is a reminder of the steps I have already taken to get to my career goals and to continue working toward them. Translating the hard work I put in before to right now will allow me to succeed in college and hopefully take me on to optometry school. I was humbled by the experience of standing on stage as the cup was presented in front of the school, faculty, and parents in the audience, and I will cherish that memory for years to come.
