The Health Science Explorers are a group of teens that are taking the health world by storm, investigating the issues that matter most to them. While learning about their personal health they are also tackling how nutrition, disease, and socio-economics can affect their families and communities.
Bonan Tagon!!! My name is Destinee. I attend Young Women's Leadership Charter School, class of 2017! I'm fifteen years of age. I like MGK, food and play lots of sports I also like to volunteer. I would love to attend an fire fighter academy; I feel that this career is a good fit for me in life. I want to be a firefighter because I love helping people in any kind of way. After I have worked as a firefighter I would like to teach kids MMA fighting and other sports. I would like to see a lot of different states and continents. Like Texas, California, Puerto Rico and others. I joined this program because, I wanted to meet lots of new people and learn more but science. Thank you for reading have a nice day okay bye!
Hello! My name is Ciara and I’m currently a freshman at Kenwood Academy High School. So far, freshman year is the absolute worst. The homework is also unnecessary. Since I was at Kenwood’s academic center, I’m taking all sophomore classes. My birthday is on December 19, 1999, which makes me a Sagittarius. I’m 14-years-old, 5’2, have brown hair and brown eyes. I love my hair and enjoy styling it. I also enjoy polishing my nails. I love love love fashion. I love love love listening to music and have become obsessed with PARTYNEXTDOOR, SZA, Drake, Frank Ocean, Kendrick Lamar, A$AP Rocky, and more. My favorite social media as of now is Snapchat because, unlike Instagram, it’s not about competition or how many likes you have. Plus, people act really goofy. I love love LOVE my iPhone, but I want the 5s. I don’t want the 6 or 6 plus because it looks way too much like the galaxy, which I don’t like very much. I’m an only child, so I’m bored most of the time. I love my friends to death, but they can be a headache. I’m the only one out of all my friends who isn’t in a dance program at After School Matters. I’m extremely talkative and outspoken when I’m at school, but need to take a break every once in a while. So, you can say I’m shy I guess. When I grow up, I want to be either a Cardiologist, Neurologist, Psychologist, Astronomer, Lawyer, Politician, Nurse, Medical Examiner, Journalist, or a Teacher. I love watching movies and I love popcorn. My favorite T.V. shows are Grey's Anatomy, Scandal, Castle, and Red Band Society. I love watching sports, but I have this love-hate relationship with basketball. I like it, but it's very aggravating. My favorite sport to watch, however, is football. And that's all you need to know about me for now. Bye! ;-).
Hi, my name is Gonzalo Higuero. I recently graduated from Kenwood Academy and I am moving on to Lincoln Park High. I am from a city in Northern Spain called Valladolid. Spain is a great place, not only do you get good (and sometimes free) tapas but you have much to do. I enjoy several things, one of which is sports. The truth is, I'm not spectacular at any one sport but I'm able to do all sports relatively well. Once I set in gear for a certain sport I perfect my game. My gear has been set to basketball, about a year ago, and I'm getting better and better.
I really want to go to either Stanford or Yale during my college years and later move on to law school. I want to go there because of the name and the knowledge that goes along with it. I would like to be a buisness lawyer because it seems like an interesting field since it has to do with wealth. After School Matters' Health Science Explorers is a great program because it opens minds about how long science extends. There are so many fields to it not just the cliche people looking for a cure to some random disease. I have learned so much already and I would like to share my knowledge through this blog.
