I know you will find Shyanne to be an exceptional young lady with extraordinary qualities. Her character and attributes will be an excellent representation of what is expected to carn this scholarship. Shyanne will go the extra mile to excel in her studies, be a part of the college community, and work hard to meet her goals. I have seen Shyanne grow and become such an outstanding person over the past four years. I have no doubts in her ability to get what she wants out of her life. After viewing Shyanne’s resume you will wonder how this young lady managed to do all she did in high school, She has taken rigorous classes, participated in at least two sports per year, been in many clubs, and spent countless hours in our local community volunteering. Not only did this young lady participate in all of these activities, she was a leader in all of them. She has been the captain of many of her teams, and she has earned many awards for her efforts. This young lady managed to do so much for our school and our community, making her a prime candidate for this scholarship. She was always happy to help and contribute in anyway to make our school shine. Shyanne Harvey gives high school students a positive name, and I know she will do the same as a college student, She has been an excellent role model to her peers. She has the ability to make her peers want to do better and achieve more as her energy and enthusiasm are contagious. Ms, Harvey is the whole package. She is smart, personable, hardworking, organized, athletic, and caring. It is hard to say in one letter what a remarkable young lady Shyanne is. As she graduates high school, the entire population of Bayside High School is sad to see her go, but realize she is destined to effect so much more beyond the walls of Bayside High School. Please do not hesitate to call if you have any questions regarding the character and academic potential of Ms. Shyanne Harvey who is absolutely the most deserving candidate for this scholarship opportunity.
