February's Senior of the Month, Kyle Walborn, sponsored by OhioMeansJobs of Champaign County
Congratulations to the February Senior of the Month, Kyle Walborn, sponsored by OhioMeansJobs of Champaign County. Kyle is a senior at Triad High School. Learn a little more about him and his accomplishments below!

School Activities and Awards:  
Played baseball, football, and wrestled. Have lettered in football and wrestling.  

 
Favorite school memory:  
​My favorite memory was this year's wrestling season. This was probably the highlight of my high school career in sports.
People who have been an inspiration to me & why: 
My grandpa Charles has always been a big inspiration to me. I took every lesson he gave me about building and tried my best to keep ahold of that. He has made me love contracting and has inspired me to become a contractor just like him.

 
Lately, I have been reading: 
1984 in English class and to be honest it isn't that bad. It's a dystopian book about this big brother government that controls everything you do. Well, the main character Winston isn't one to believe in the government that is controlling him.

 
My advice to parents:  
Be stern but not a dictator. Let your kid be a kid. Always show love and try to understand where they're coming from. Being able to talk to your kids about issues freely without yelling at them makes a big difference to the life your kid will have and how they treat their children in the future. Life is too short to just yell at your kids.

 
My biggest regret:  
Not giving everything I got in my sports last year. Who knew my wrestling season would get taken away by a broken leg?

 
Next year I will be:  
Working out in Honda to gain money to get my contracting business started, hopefully, within the next few years.

The Cruel Prince 

 
My advice to parents:  
Encourage your kids to try new things and do the things that they want. 
 
My biggest regret:  
Not truly enjoying and making the most of high school until my senior year.

 I am an honor roll student and won a Sinclair Spectrum Award for my poem, "The Five Stages". 
If I were principal for a day: 
If I were principal for the day I would put a rule in place to make sure students could take mental health days that wouldn't count against them.

Favorite school memory: 
My favorite school memory would have to be drama club. The productions are always so much fun and I get to do it with the best people. 

People who have been an inspiration to me include: 
My Grammy and Grampy.
Because: they are the strongest and most caring people I have ever met. I love you guys!

Lately I have been reading:
All of Rupi Kaur's books
​
My advice to parents: 
My advice to parents would be to be gentle. There is always a reason kids do things even if it isn't obvious at first. Always communicate and you may learn more than you would think.

My biggest regret: 
My biggest regret would be not being more involved sooner.

Next year I will be: 
Going to cosmetology school and taking as many art classes as I can at a nearby college.
