St. HOPE Scholar Spotlight
Students teaching, students leading
My name is Akosua Boateng and I am a 17 year old senior who attends Sacramento Charter High School. I have been part of the St. HOPE family since I started my 4th grade year at PS7 elementary and I’m looking forward to walking the stage this spring with my diploma and heading off to college next year. I can proudly say that college has been drilled in my head since I was in elementary school. I have applied to all the colleges I am interested in attending, so the plan is to attend one of the many UCs here in the state or go to a private school.
