To Whom It May Concern:

It is my pleasure to write this letter on behalf of Whitley Blake. Whitley is one of the best. When I say that I sincerely mean
it. Her motivation in and out of the classroom in whatever she does is inspirational. She has incredible integrity; when
others are trying to take the "easy way out" and have classes where they know they will get an A at the semester, Whitley is
taking classes where she may do a little bit worse, but they are classes where she is actually learning and in subjects that
will help her in her future and her career.
Whitley hopes to gain a degree and a career in psychology, where her maturity and care for others will be obvious. I can
easily see Whitley helping others for the remainder of her life because she cares so much for those around her. She will
without a doubt be a successful college student as her focus in high school has gained her a clear path for her future.
Academically, she has been to our school's Honors Banquet for all 6 years of her junior/senior high school career. This is
only achieved by the top 10% of the class per year, which shows that she has not only ended her senior year at the top five
of her class, but has been there and stayed there for all 6 years. This is respected immensely by the staff of our school.
Whenever you hear the name Whitley Blake a very specific set of characteristics comes to mind, all of them outstanding.
Athletically, she also exceeds. She has participated in cross country, wrestling and track for all 6 years here at Brown City
High School. She has gained academic and athletic all-state honors in all 3 sports, which shows her perseverance to get and
stay better, as well as her leadership on her teams. Her participation in National Honor Society and volunteer work outside
of school also shows her empathy for people in the community as well as our school.
Overall, I cannot say enough good things about Whitley. I cannot wait to see her succeed in life.
Sincerely thank you for consideration of Whitley.
