Rubie Valdivia

“I participate in cross country, Beta, National Honors Society, and soccer. For our community service we are required to tutor at Hope Extreme. Other things that I like to do is read and listen to music. My favorite subjects are English and math. I am a member of Annuziata Catholic Church. Also, I have an older sister who is 20 years old and a younger brother who is 15 years old. One of my main goals in life is to create a nonprofit organization to help kids stay active and feel like that have a second home. I want to create a place that helps kids grow into successful, mature adults because society can have a negative influence on children and they often imitate what they see. Overall, I want to help create a safe place for kids and even teens where they can receive any help or guidance they need, and incorporate fun activities to keep them occupied. After graduation, I plan to go to college to obtain a bachelor’s degree in psychology.”
