Jessica Weeks<br />

Grayson and Seth Jenson<br />

Memorial <strong>Scholarship</strong><br />

Why are you interested in School Psychology?<br />

As a child, I was able to personally benefit from the<br />

compassion, understanding, patience and knowledge <strong>of</strong> a<br />

child psychologist. Through the years, I have witnessed<br />

these same characteristics in the School Psychologists that<br />

are dedicated to helping every child experience success.<br />

Whether this success is academic, social, or emotional, I too<br />

have a desire to help children achieve their full potential and<br />

overcome the academic or emotional hardships in their way.<br />

I am dedicated to my own education as a School<br />

Psychologist to ensure that in the future I have keen insight<br />

and the ability to use the most creative, effective<br />

interventions in working with these children in order to<br />

instill a sense <strong>of</strong> self-confidence, enthusiasm, and a desire to<br />

learn and grow both at school and at home.<br />
