Tecumseh’s Gabrielle Daniels – Gordon Cooper Student Athlete Spotlight

By Ember McElrath 

A senior at Tecumseh High School and student at Gordon Cooper Technology Center, Gabrielle Daniels lives a busy life. Not only does she excel in her schoolwork she is also involved in cheerleading, BETA, and National Technical Honor Society. 

“Making good grades to me is important,” said Daniels. “It shows that you are a hard worker.”

English is currently her favorite subject as she loves to express herself through writing.

Not only are her grades important to her, but also being a person of good character is something that Gabrielle strives for. 

“Being a person of good character means showing the love, loyalty, and passion you have for something no matter what anyone says and staying true to yourself, and knowing you will never give up on it,” said Daniels. “I also believe it is by staying positive and spreading happiness to others and never letting anyone feel anything less.” 

In her spare time this senior enjoys spending time with those closest to her.

“I love being around my friends and family,” said Gabrielle. “They all have a positive effect on my life.” 

Having people you look up to and model your life after is something every young person needs, and Gabrielle has just the people for that. 

“My dad and mom are the people who inspire me the most. My dad always pushes me to do my best and always has my back through every decision I make. My mom does everything in her power to help build me up and work through tough times. She also always pushes me to do my best and never lets me fall. Both my parents always show me unconditional love and help me through everything.”

After high school Gabrielle plans to attend college and pursue a degree as an X-ray Technician as well as a degree in nursing.
