I had an Individualized Education Program (IEP) in school, which means I received additional support tailored to how I learn best. While some people might assume that needing an IEP limits academic success, my experience shows the opposite. I have worked hard to stay focused, advocate for myself, and use the resources available to me effectively. Because of that effort, I have maintained a 3.8 GPA, proving that with the right support and determination, I can excel just like any other student. My IEP does not define my abilities—it helps me reach my full potential. I am always willing to help others the same way my teachers helped me.
