Senior Spotlight: Claudia Jimenez

By: Cecilia Jimenez Ramirez

With the school year coming to a close for senior Claudia Jimenez, she looks back at all the memories she had at Collinsville and is ready to embark into her future. Claudia has taken part in many clubs over the years such as: Yearbook Staff, FBLA, FCCLA, Senior Beta, and Teens Together. Claudia has taken pride in being a student-athlete; not only has she had excellent grades she is also a Northeast Alabama Community College Dual Enrollment student and on the girl's varsity soccer team.

After high school, Claudia plans to attend Gadsden State Community College to major in Diagnostic Medical Sonography. When asked, “How do you feel about graduating?” Claudia responded, “I am excited and ready to start a new phase in my life, although I will miss this school and my peers.” Like every senior at this time, they try to make great memories with loved ones. One of Claudia’s favorite memories was “Going to tour JSU with my friend Jacqueline. From getting Starbucks in the morning to touring the campus together and riding the bus home. It was a great experience overall.”

With Senior year ending, and Claudia looking back at all the fun she had, she would like to leave a message for the upcoming seniors. “Good luck on your new beginnings and work hard to achieve your goals. Senior year goes by quickly so make sure to cherish the memories you make and most importantly let loose and have fun.”
