Payton Miller-Kay is currently attending her third year at Ripon High School. Payton is a part of Girls League, Link Crew, Sideline Cheer, and Pride Tribe. Along with this, Payton is returning to her third year of Student Council with the Leadership program at Ripon High School. Her job there entails her to be a creative, innovative student that inspires others to get involved with their school through publicizing school events and activities. Payton also volunteers for the Ripon Chiefs Novice Cheer team, coaching the girls on cheers, dances, stunts, and skills that they will be able to use in the real world. She's not sure what she would like to pursue a career in but she loves the idea of being able to help people with whatever job she chooses. This year her goals are to stay on top of all of her work, try new things outside of her comfort zone, earn a 4.0+ GPA, keep a positive mindset, and to become a role model for other students.
A quote that Payton finds very valuable is "The World is What You Make of it" by Lawrence Kasdan. She believes that life is all about your mindset. Payton always try to see things with an open mind and a positive attitude so this quote really resonates with how she views the world. Payton knows that life isn't always going to be "sunshine and rainbows" but that doesn't mean you just give up. She believes that even in bad situations there are things to be grateful for and in time, things will get better. |
