Her academic excellence has earned her a four-year academic varsity letter and a three-year recognition as a Nevada All-State Academic Team member for soccer.
Beyond the classroom, Morgan is a fierce competitor on the soccer field.

As the youngest of three children, with two older brothers in college, Addy has grown up witnessing the impact of service. With her mother working as a pediatric nurse and her father serving as a high school teacher and dean, Addy has seen firsthand the importance of mentoring the next generation with kindness, love and compassion.
Known for her quick wit and unwavering support for her peers, Addy is truly one of the kindest young people at CHS.
