Daniel Garcia:

The first thing that Daniel can remember about high school is trying to join the baseball team. He remembers meeting some new friends early on, which then led to him to getting comfortable with the group of people that he would then spend the rest of high school with. Daniel continued playing baseball throughout freshman and sophomore year, but he decided to take some time off during his junior year so that he could spend more time focusing on his classes. Now as a senior, he has decided to get back into baseball, and also join ASB as a commissioner, so that he can be a part of the group that helped make his time at GHS amazing. Daniel enjoys hanging out with his family and friends, as well as playing games and listening to music. He likes to be active at the park, either by hitting baseballs or shooting a three! Daniel also enjoys staying at home watching movies with his family or playing online video games with his friends. After high school, Daniel plans on going to college and study to eventually become a firefighter, so that he can help people in danger, give back to his community, and be a positive role model to kids and others.
