My name is Laila Shannon. I am from Atlanta, Georgia and I've been going to Drew Charter School for most of my academic career. I have found passion in the engineering and computer science disciplines and Drew has taught me how to become a well-rounded scholar through it's interdisciplinary curriculum.
My experience at Drew has been much more than my letter grades. I have been privileged enough to attend a school where creativity is encouraged and the opportunities are endless. I have been able to participate in a plethora of extracurriculars including BETA Club, Robotics Club, Step Up, and more.
I have also been given the chance to foster a community and family with not only students but also staff and admin who continuously support me in my academic journey.Â
This portfolio is a way to highlight my work and achievements in my high school life.
I am still exploring what I want my future to look like. Something I know for certain is that I'm passionate in engineering and technology. With this I am continuously exploring possible paths for me by participating in different programs and internships. Below is a vison board that represents what I would hope my future to look like.
