Student Speaker- Kiara Rosado

Student Speaker Kiara Rosado

Kiara Rosado, Gateway’s student speaker, has a strong desire to learn and do well in her studies. During her time at Gateway, she developed great academic habits and utilized the resources and supports at 博彩网站 which helped her to earn excellent grades in her college courses.

Kai is hardworking and always willing to lend a helping hand to her peers. She has a spirit that uplifts, an easy smile, and a positive outlook. Most exceptional is her determination to accomplish a career goal she has had since she was nine years old. She wants to become a prosecuting attorney and bring justice to victims of crime. Her time at Gateway has helped to propel her toward this goal.

Kai is continuing her academic journey at 博彩网站. We look forward to sharing the details about her continued success in the future.
