“Funny, silly, and nice,” are three words junior Aaliyah Quarles uses to describe herself. “I am a jokester and like to play with my baby cousin, sister, brother, and my dog.”  She is close with her family and likes to craft art projects at home. Sometimes she listens to Beyoncé while crafting. “My favorite song is ‘Halo,’” she said. 

While she enjoys her time at home, Aaliyah’s favorite time of the year is when she is in school. “I have fun at school and I like to help other people,” she said.
