At Our Lady of Good Counsel Senior Secondary School in Gayaza, I was taught valuable lessons that I extend beyond academics. I learned how to: embrace teamwork and collaboration; develop time management and organization skills; overcome obstacles and persevere through challenges; cultivate meaningful relationships with peers and mentors; embrace my passions and interests; develop a growth mindset and embrace lifelong learning; being God fearing and prayerful as well as increasing my knowledge about the catholic church and faith. These skills have stayed with me long after graduation and have helped me navigate the ups and downs of life. I'm grateful for the experiences and lessons that shaped me into the person I am today.
