She was co-president for her grade the past two cears, participates in choir and musical theater and is deep- lc engaged in activities surrounding her passion for science and art. “I just reallc enjoc taking a large varietc of classes at Sisters High School,” she sacs. “I guess I just real- lc like to push mcself to learn more.” Kendall has attended Sisters schools since kindergarten, and loves feeling so connected to her school communitc — and the communitc at large. “Itʼs just such a close, tight-knit communitc, and thatʼs reallc special,” she sacs. “I feel like the teachers here are reallc, reallc special — and the staff in general.” She plans to attend college with an interest in interdisciplinarc studies in English, historc and environmental science, with a possible art minor. “Kendall has such a kind spirit!

You are rare gem, Kendall!” — Samra Spear “Kendall is an amazingly tal- ented music student, actress, and all-around great person. I have worked with Kendall in mu- sic classes since she was in the middle school. Her strong voice and willingness to conquer every challenge make her a joy to have in class. She always gives 100% of her focus and energy to ac- complish every goal. You might have seen her on stage last month as the Wicked Stepmother in the high schoolʼs production of Cinderella. Believe me... in real life she isnʼt wicked at all.” – Rick Johnson thoughtful in the classroom. She is ten- der-hearted and kind. She is an amaz- ing performer.
