Cameron Aaron Forrester was born on November 29, 2006. He is the son of Chuck and BJ Forrester and has one sibling, Nate Forrester. Cameron's favorite teacher is Mrs. Newell because she has helped him stay caught up with his work. Cameron is involved in the Pep Club. One quote from staff that has stuck with him throughout high school is, “Education is not the filling of a pail, but rather the lighting of a fire.” Three words he would use to describe himself are quiet, goofy, and fun. If Cameron could travel anywhere in the world, he would choose to go out west because of the beautiful scenery. One of his favorite school memories is bothering Mrs. Newell, while his most embarrassing moment in high school occurred during freshman year when the entire freshman class was called down to the Cardinal Café and reprimanded by Mr. Kinder for fighting. When he was a child, Cameron wanted to become a police officer. After graduating high school, he plans to attend CTC for the paramedic program.
Cameron’s advice to underclassmen is, “You can do anything you set your mind to.” He is excited about graduating but will miss seeing and talking to his friends. The person who has had the greatest influence on him is Fire Chief Calvin Troxell, who has taught him a great deal about the fire service and has helped shape the person he is today. Cameron believes his biggest accomplishment so far is completing EMT school and participating in volunteer firefighting.
