Hailey Whitaker

With a 3.78 GPA, 26 completed college credit hours, and a demanding academic background that includes AP World History, AP Biology II, and AP Environmental Science, I am a driven and academically motivated student. My enthusiasm for learning about leadership, governance, and how political choices affect people and communities has led me to pursue a career in political science. I have gained a deep appreciation for civic duty, teamwork, and service through my membership in the National Honor Society, Leo Club, Chick-fil-A Leader Academy, and student government, where I served as Junior Class Vise President and Senior Class President. As a four-year varsity cheerleader and team captain, I have also developed my leadership, communication, and teamwork skills. I want to study political science to broaden my knowledge of politics and government, broaden my horizons, and get ready to use leadership and public service to have a significant influence.
