My name is Saanika and I am currently completing my freshman year at Dublin High School. In middle school I earned an academic achievement reward for gaining a 4.0 GPA all three years and I have continued this achievement for both semesters of my freshman year. I am involved in the Biomedical program and the HOSA club with that, and for fun I joined the school newspaper, "The Dublin Shield" and CSF, the California Scholarship Federation. I've been playing soccer since third grade and have been playing competitively since fifth grade. I enjoy art and participated in an art class for three years in middle school, as well as an abacus math class which I took for five years. All of these aspects have shaped the person I am.
