Humans of CHAH: Jayden Ventura

Jayden Ventura is a rising 16-year old at community health academy of the heights, who’s an up and coming senior who wants to major in finance or in law. His story is important because Jayden himself has struggled in his personal life. Having it happen so suddenly has affected his academic performance but also how drastic it was that I don’t have permission to specify.

Jayden Ventura, loves music, Games, Sports, Family and lots of social media. This is important to him because it’s what has gotten him so far in his life but also what makes his characteristics interesting and shapes him as a person “My interests are always within my heart and I really am passionate about them”- Ventura said.

The challenges he faced was once again his personal life. What had happened was so sudden that Jayden couldn’t even prepare for it since he didn’t really know how to handle it. Not only that multiple school works being on top of that, another problem was being consistent for attendance but through many struggles nearly at the end of the school year he is on track to passing the 11th grade year.

Keylor merejo, one of Ventura’s best friends, also representing the boys basketball for Community Health Academy Of the Heights had this to say this, “Jayden has done me proud, as his friend, im happy he got through what he went through and also making it to the football team”- said merejo.

Jayden’s future goals that he hopes to achieve is going to college and majoring in financial field or law like criminal justice or even the music industry becoming a producer in beats based on his music idols like for example kanye, Newjeans and travis scott. “

It’s been fascinating how far I’ve come since the 6th grade because to be fair that i was always the class clown, always joking around especially in 8th grade where i jumped into a pool on a end of year school trip and hurt my toe but also ran away from the teachers trying not to get caught in trouble. Seeing myself preparing for college by getting helped from my relatives that went to college and also Mr.Bowen offering me programs like college now, to get the experience and credit for college for me to achieve my future major”.
