Senior in the Spotlight
Mackenzie Tackett
Mackenzie Tackett has always been focused on her education and her future. At the young age of 8, during a health screening, it was discovered that she had hearing loss in her right ear and last year, at the age of 17 she was diagnosed with dyscalculia. Due to her motivation and drive, she has overcome so much, and will be graduating this year with an above average GPA.
While taking college bound classes she is also very involved with her school and has accomplished great things. She has been on the cyber security and rifle teams in our Military Science program, and has also earned the rank as ensign. Mackenzie has lettered in swimming and is studying American Sign Language. Teachers have described her as being driven, motivated and equally hard working.
Mackenzie is currently applying to colleges with an NJROTC program. Her hopes are for a future in the military flying drones. She has already earned her drone pilot’s license. Her other career plan for the future would be to become a sign language interpreter.
Congratulations Mackenzie on being our senior in the spotlight!
