Adviser Anne Lawrence
Principal David Martinez
Newport-Mesa Unified School District

As a member of Early College High School’s CSF chapter in Costa Mesa, Emily explains that even though there is not an active chapter, and officers are not elected, she has still found a way to exemplify the CSF motto “Scholars for Service” in so many other ways. Reviewing her list of activities, it’s clear her passion is helping others through tutoring, which she completes through the National Honor Society. From offering editing advice for students needing help with essays, to algebra and statistics help, Emily has a gift of compassion to help her fellow students. According to her CSF Adviser, Anne Lawrence, “Emma has a unique ability to connect with others, and because of this, otherwise reluctant students are willing to listen to her and to learn from her.” Expanding her reach for community service, Emily serves as the secretary for the Serving and Learning Together Club, and with others is responsible for helping to plan community service events. Beyond school, Emily has been a committed volunteer at Harbor Trinity Church since 2016, assisting with the children’s program, serving as a church event volunteer, and planning community service events. According to Claire Campbell, the Director of Student Ministries, “Emma is an excellent role model to other students her age and younger.” Are you sensing a theme here? Don’t make this girl angry or she just might display her Brazilian Jiu Jitsu skills that’s been working on since 2014. Moving into her future, Emma plans to attend either UC Irvine, UC Riverside or Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, where she will major in Environmental Engineering. When those rare moments occur where she has down time, Emma loves to unwind listening to soundtracks of musicals. I am proud to introduce you to Emma Bronkar.

A CSF member for all four years of high school, Sky has been the president for the past two years of the local CSF chapter at Bolsa Grande High School in Garden Grove. With over 200 members, Sky’s largest task is coordinating 4 -5 monthly service opportunities for the members, most recently partaking in a Hygiene Drive to support the new mental health facility on campus. Outside of CSF, Sky thrives as a leader, serving as a founding member and Vice President of the Youth Advisory Council, Treasurer and now president of Project Angkor, Vice President of the national Honor Society, Vice President of the Math Club, and a student representative of School Site Council. In all of these endeavors, Sky’s focus is always on helping others be their best. Hannah Jaspard, his CSF Adviser states that Sky has this “enthusiasm for living life to the fullest,” and an “ability to communicate most eloquently to people of all ages.” One of his teachers, Amy Nguyen, writes that Sky’s service to the community reinvents the atmosphere to be more welcoming and supportive.”  In his personal statement, explaining his desire to help the less fortunate, Sky writes that he feels like “a town crier for the homeless minority who suffer silently in my community. For college, Sky will attend UC Berkeley and major in Bioengineering with the plans to go into the biomedical device field. Don’t worry, I was confused too. This means he plans to research things like glucose monitors, or pacemakers, etc. 

If you need to find him when he’s not leading a service opportunity, try the beach, because Sky absolutely loves spending time with family and friends there soaking up the glorious SoCal sun.

Attending Westview High in San Diego , Katie has been a member of CSF all 8 semesters of her high school career, and has participated in such events as food drives, school carnivals, blood drives and much more. For many of these events, she served as chairman which shows her dedication to leadership. In her personal statement, Katie explains that her “favorite task was spearheading “Start with Hello Week,” where we wrote every student a nametag and displayed them on campus. This helped students meet each other and prevent social isolation.

Outside of CSF, she is a strong leader in so many areas. Katie is the secretary of ASB this year, and has spent much time with school-wide community service, and recognition. This year, she is the president of the club, Random Acts of Kindness, and has been co president, and vice president in previous years. For the Westview Theater Company, she has worn many hats, including junior council, council member, and production manager to name a few. Oh, she’s also the present secretary for the Jewish Culture Club, was the JV Girls Soccer goalkeeper for two years, represented her high school at Girl’s State, and much, much more. Perhaps her most heartfelt involvement is with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society where she was chosen as the Student Visionary of the year for 2022 for Southern California and Hawaii and was the runner up in 2023. Abbey Gill, from LLS when writing about Katie “can promise she is a self-starter, unbelievably dedicated to helping others, and is truly an outstanding individual.

Her college plans are to attend either UCLA, USC, or NYU where she hopes to major in acting for film and stage, with a possible minor in Political Science. Whatever her future holds, Katie plans to make “Tikkun Olam, a Hebrew phrase which means “world repair” her personal motto.

The current president of Great Oak High School in Temecula, Faith leads a very busy CSF chapter. With over 200 members, Faith has helped with everything from Friendship Bracelet making, to Garden club, to a Greek festival, Operation Christmas Child, and many more. Her favorite is an event called the Spectacular Prom, where she explains that “special education students from the district come to enjoy an amazing night with the CSF students, with the goal of giving them the best night possible with a prom-like setting.” In leadership roles outside of CSF, Faith is the current president of the Habitat for Humanity Club, where she has also served as a secretary. She is also the current president of the National Honor Society and was the vice president last year. I think she likes being in charge. In sports she’s known as Faith “Volleyball” Hibbard. Actually, I just made that up. Seriously though, she has excelled in volleyball all four years of high school as a member of varsity, has also played competitive volleyball since the age of 8, and beach volleyball for the past 5 years. Considering all facets of her life, Fath’s science teacher explains that “Her commitment to community service and volunteering demonstrates a well-rounded and socially responsible approach to her education.” This commitment will lead her to either UC San Diego, or UCLA, where she plans to major in Civil Engineering, and perhaps minor in Business, with the goal of working for an engineering firm as a career. Wherever her future takes her, it is clear that Faith will be amazing.
