One thing that education can do is it can provide us with an opportunity to understand one another better, and so while I’ve spent a lot of my time in the world of politics, I’ve always felt that it is really not politics that will solve this for us.

Freshman Year

the concept of college may seem distant.
It is never too early to start preparing for
college application. Focus on obtaining
strong grades, getting involved in school,
and begin familiarizing yourself with the
college applications process.

Junior Year

academic transcript stand out, overseeing
leadership roles in clubs, and taking college
standardized tests such as the SAT or ACT.

for high school juniors on what they should
be doing to prepare themselves.
