Scholar Stories

Summer Jackson

University of Minnesota, Major: Journalism and English

Richfield High School, 2008

Service-to-Children Project: Richfield Intermediate School

Summer Jackson hopes to pursue her passion of writing through a career in journalism.  What being a Page Scholar has given her is the desire to someday share her knowledge and experiences in the classroom as a teacher. She feels so proud to be a part of an organization that gives back to the community – it has had a lasting impact on her life. “I developed a connection with all of the students in the class and was very sad to leave.  I never thought I could become so attached in such a short amount of time.  They say college is all about figuring out what to do with your life.  I know my service has caused me to re-evaluate my studies.”
