Having lost a sibling to cancer, she is passionate about contributing to the development of new cancer therapies. Sharon’s ambition, to which she is perfectly suited, is to earn her undergraduate and graduate degrees in Organic Chemistry with the ultimate goal of becoming a medical research scientist. She also regularly volunteers with the American Cancer Society and Habitat for Humanity. She led our girls’ volleyball team to the state tournament three years running, twice earning MVP recognitions, and was actively involved in the school’s student government, French Club, and Debate Club. Not only is Sharon a brilliant student, but she has also proven herself a leader in both school and civic organizations. An honors student and class valedictorian, she excelled in the three accelerated science classes she took with me, earning the department’s Science Award her senior year for her outstanding performance in Advanced Chemistry and Advanced Physics. In my capacity as a Chemistry Teacher at Anytown High School, I have known Sharon since her freshman year. It is with much enthusiasm that I am writing to you in support of Sharon Davis’s application to State University.
