KYLEE CHISHOLM

Throughout High School I participated in NHS, girls basketball, and HOSA – in which I qualified for nationals two years in a row in the Forensic Medicine event. After high school I plan to attend ASU online and complete a Bachelor's of Science degree in Criminology and Criminal Justice. In the future, after college, I hope to work for the FBI in the Behavioral Analysis Unit studying major criminals and their behavior patterns.

JENNA RODRIGUEZ

My name is Jenna Rodriguez and I have been going to Creswell High School for two years now, and these two years have been very important to me. I moved to Oregon in 2021 and joined Creswell High School halfway through my junior year. As a new student in a new environment, I was fearful. However, I got through certain challenges and overcame my fears by making new friends and pushing myself to do my best in school. I couldn't have gotten through my senior year without the support of my teachers and best friends.

GIANNA ROSS

Although there's been a lot of ups and downs, I'm happy to say that I am truly grateful for everything that high school has taught me; I've come out of my comfort zone a lot over the past four years with the help of Drama Club and the Bulldog Café, and Band has given me a lot of great memories with great people that I'll always remember. I've also learned a lot about being a leader as one of the co-Presidents of the NHS, and I really appreciate the opportunities it's given me to make a difference. That's something that I've been trying to do at CHS; whether it's big or small, I've always hoped to make CHS better in some way. No matter how much my actions have made a difference, though, I'm still incredibly grateful for the opportunity that I've gotten to watch my fellow classmates grow.

CAROLINE SPRIGGS

My name is Caroline Spriggs and I have lived in Creswell my entire life, attending all 3 of the schools in CSD. Growing up I have always been into sports. I played T-ball and soccer in elementary school and then got into volleyball and basketball more consistently once I got to middle school. I have also always loved being involved in my school and being a leader to serve my classmates and make school a fun and enjoyable environment. One more important thing about me is I am a Christian and have attended the same church my whole life. I love to spend time with Jesus and worship Him with my friends and family.

KENDYL WHITSON

I have had an interesting high school experience, to say the least. When Covid hit Freshman year I had no idea I wouldn’t be coming back to school until my Senior year. Online school is so much different than in-person school and it is way less motivating. Playing sports through Covid was one of the biggest struggles for me. I love sports but all the restrictions made me not enjoy them anymore. I was doing school online alone and I was not enjoying my favorite sports. It was very tough but looking back, I have grown and learned through my experiences and I am grateful for them.
