November 2007
 

Jessica Rosa

Jessica is an enthusiastic young woman who sets high standards for herself. She is dependable, conscientious, good natured, and creative. She is a diligent student who invests time and energy into her honors classes and maintains an A average. Jessica eschewed the opportunity to participate in the UHS internship program this fall because she believed that she would miss valuable academic work. Instead, she found the best of both worlds and is completing an afterschool internship at UniBank for Savings, where she has received rave reviews for her work. Jessica is a member of Student Council, the tennis team, and is a student representative for both the UHS School Council and the School Committee. She has enjoyed peer-mentoring the past two years and is part of the Yearbook Staff. Jessica is an exceptional member of the Class of 2008 who continually contributes to her school.
