My extracurricular agenda in high school has always been do whatever looks good on a high school transcript, namely science institute or mathletes.  I helped out the JUMP team last year and decided that I would devote some of my time to JUMP this year. I never expected to gain as much as I have from this program. I never would have thought that my efforts could make something so great and affect so many lives if not for JUMP.  I don’t think I can ever properly express the extent of my gratitude.
