Jordan’s Proudest Accomplishment: “Becoming Student Body President is my most proud accomplishment. Coming into student council my freshmen year, I didn’t expect to achieve this goal. It was only until my sophomore year that I knew I wanted to make a difference and become the Student Body President. I continued to put in hard work within my council and school and eventually, it all paid off.”
Contributions to Jordan’s Success: “My drive and desire are what make me so successful. When I want something, I will achieve it no matter how much I have to go through.”
Jordan’s Inspiration: “One person I really look up to is my sister, Jasmine Serrano. She is the reason why I joined student council. I even followed in her footsteps and became the student body president just like her! She constantly motivates and helps me become the best person I can be. I wouldn’t be the person I am today without her.”
Words Jordan Lives By: “Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.” –Buddha
