A Step Above: Kimberly Sandusky
Foothill High School
Class of 2012
If you asked Foothill High School senior Kimberly Sandusky how she maintains such a positive outlook on life, she’d tell you it comes from trying to see the good in everything and being confident in her beliefs. For her, the key to success is learning to embrace both strengths and weaknesses and to have no regrets. She’s not just setting out to be a role model; she’s living it, both in school and out in the world. Working with the less fortunate has helped her to take nothing for granted and embrace all life has to offer, which puts Kimberly Sandusky – A Step Above.
G.P.A.: 4.8

Accomplishments Most Proud Of: “I am most proud of the fact that I have earned straight A’s throughout my entire school career. I have worked very hard to balance my extracurricular schedule with my school work. Even though my free time is limited, I would not trade my busy life for anything in the world.”
Kimberly Looks Up To: “I look up to my parents. They have been so supportive of me in everything that I have done and the choices I have made. They have always encouraged me to follow my dreams. Even though we may not always agree, I know that they will be there for me and love me unconditionally. They have helped mold me into the person I am today, and I am forever grateful.”
Kimberly is Stronger and Wiser Because: “I attended a mission trip to Jamaica, where I experienced first-hand the poverty in which some people live. While visiting an overcrowded orphanage in Montego Bay, I was humbled and amazed to see how happy the children were even though they had virtually nothing. They taught me that it shouldn’t take material things to make me happy, and I shouldn’t take anything in life for granted.”
