High school senior will receive associate's degree before her high school diploma
An Ohio high school senior, Taylor Oberjohann, will be walking at Miami University's graduation a little more than a week before receiving her high school diploma.
It took a lot of homework, long nights and compromised summer breaks, but Taylor, who attends William Henry Harrison High School, says it was worth it.
"I want to leave my mark. Maybe not on the world, but Harrison at least and just kind of wanted to get ahead in life," said Taylor.
Taylor accomplished this by enrolling in college credit-plus courses throughout all four years of high school 맥스카지노 an opportunity available to all students at her school, not just those at the top of their class.
"My GPA was actually 3.4, so not the best. Not the worst," said Taylor.
Taylor's next move is Earlham College in Richmond, Indiana. She plans to earn her bachelor's degree in adolescent psychology in 1 1/2 to two years while playing golf.
"It's just always been a dream to help children the way I have been helped, share my personal experiences and try and help other people get through life," said Taylor.
"I don't think I could be more proud of my daughter," said Taylor's father, Ron Oberjohann. "When your child has a dream, it's your responsibility to do everything you can for that child and help them get where they want to be, because the joy that brings you is beyond compare."
