Amiah Dugas, Writer/Reporter
Amiah Dugas has been attending Lake Charles Charter Academy for 9 nine years now. She is now in the eighth grade, and excelling in the many activities she participates in both in and out of the classroom. She was born and raised in the state of Louisiana. Her family consists of her mother, father, and one sister who is much older than Amiah. Her mother lived in California for most of her life but eventually moved to Lake Charles, Louisiana where she met the love of her life, her (Amiah’s) father. Outside of school she loves to draw and play the piano. Both hobbies are particularly important to her when she uses them throughout her free time. She also plays a few sports including cheerleading, basketball, and volleyball. She has been a member of several school clubs throughout her educational career including art, music, and BETA club. All these hobbies, sports, and clubs help identify who she is, what she wants to be, and who she wants to become. She is grateful for the opportunity to learn she enjoys so many things because these activities have opened doors she never would have looked at otherwise.
