Amiah Tait-Hixon

Congratulations, Amiah Tait-Hixon! 🎉 Amiah will be attending the Community College of Philadelphia as a Psychology/ Social Work Major. #SNG2023

💬 Why did you choose the Community College of Philadelphia?
🗣 "One reason is that community college is often more affordable than a four-year college or university. Community colleges offer smaller class sizes, which can provide a more personalized learning experience. Community colleges also offer a variety of programs and courses that can help students explore different fields of study before committing to a specific major."

💬 What are your career aspirations?
🗣 "I would like to do something that helps me make a positive impact on people's lives. A career in psychology can involve working with individuals or groups to help them overcome mental health issues or improve their overall well-being. Social work, on the other hand, involves working with individuals or communities to help them address social issues such as poverty, homelessness, or domestic violence. Both fields require a strong commitment to helping others, as well as excellent communication and problem-solving skills."

💬 How has your high school experience helped you grow as a person?
🗣 "My high school experience has helped me grow in many ways. I have developed better communication skills by presenting projects or participating in group discussions. I feel as if high school can be a time of self-discovery, where you learn more about your interests, values, and goals. By taking classes in subjects that interest me, I have discovered new passions and developed a deeper understanding of my strengths and weaknesses. During my four years of high school, I had the opportunity to build relationships with peers and mentors that supported me throughout my academic and personal journey."

Congrats, Amiah! We are very proud of you! 🎓 #GoSaints #SeniorSpotlights
