What is the Student Advisory Council?

Fall 2023 Cohort
Ammara Hussain
Texas Online Preparatory School
Career Field: Information Technology: Web Development
Grade: 10
Hobbies: Cooking and art
My dream job is to become a material engineer. I love fashion design, but becoming a fashion designer feels too basic for me, so I wanted to spice it up by becoming a material engineer. That way, I can make my own fabrics for my outfits and sell them! I could create fabrics with unique textures and colors not found in traditional stores with the skills I would learn as a material engineer. I could also design sustainable, eco-friendly fabrics that are not too hot for the heat in places like Texas. This would be the perfect job to combine my love for fashion design with my passion for engineering.

Career Field: Health Science: Healthcare Therapeutic
Grade: 11
Hobbies: Reading, cooking, working out, and making artwork
My dream job would involve something related to sports medicine or animals. For some time, I was considering being a certified professional trainer or, perhaps, a veterinarian. Besides my love for healthcare and fitness lies my passion for all kinds of animals (it doesn't come as a surprise, seeing as I have five of my own).
Khadeeja Tapkirwala
Texas Online Preparatory School
Career Field: Information Technology: Web Development
Grade: 12
Hobbies: Reading, crocheting, baking, content creation, and coding
I chose TOPS K12 because I wanted to complete school while also pursuing independent studies. Another driving factor in my decision was that choosing K12 would allow me to receive quality education while saving time and learning at my own pace. The flexibility and opportunity that K12 presented allowed me to learn both school subjects and other subjects I was passionate about outside of school.

Texas Online Preparatory School
Career Field: Business: Entrepreneurship

After high school, I will get my bachelor's degree in entrepreneurship / marketing with a minor in political science. After, I will go to law school in hopes to pass the bar and become an attorney. My dream is to help people, and I think being able to defend somebody in court is exciting. I believe I can make a difference in people's lives!
