Bayani

Bayani prefers to be called “Bayani” by her friends and teachers because she says it feels friendly. Cheerful, kind, and thoughtful, Bayani has a natural curiosity about the world and a strong imagination. She is also determined—once she sets a goal, she follows through with focus and creativity. Her empathy helps her work well in groups and support her classmates.

Bayani loves listening to music, especially Linkin Park, and enjoys watching scary movies like Chucky. She likes hanging out with friends at the town park, camping, and bowling. Family, friendship, honesty, and kindness are especially important to her, and she values spending time with the people she loves.

Bayani participates in her local summer recreation program, attends summer camps, and is active in cheer programs. When she grows up, she aspires to become a Child Protection Caseworker so she can help other children live happy and safe lives.
