Tiana Marie Aggison
On October 31, 2004, I became the oldest of the two children for Tanika Aggison. I graduated from Cypress Lake High School ISD with a 3.8 GPA, ranked 68 out of 719 students. During the school year I volunteered with community service and FFA. My hobbies include art and crafts and walking long distances. My plans are to attend Prairie View A&M University.
Saint Rest Missionary Baptist Church is my church home and Reverend S.E. Harris is my pastor. I participated in the Usher Ministry and served as recording secretary. My personal commitment to Christ is like no other. I’ve been in church all my life and I’ve been in multiple church activities. I believe Christ died for my sins and every day I’m reminded of how grateful I am to have Him in my life.
In the future I plan to graduate from Prairie View A&M University with honors and a degree in Biology. I plan to be involved in many clubs, activities, and pledge to a sorority. After graduation I intend on pursuing a career as an Obstetrical Gynecologist.

I am in regular attendance to Sunday School and Vacation Bible School and serves as a Teen Helper with the Children’s Church Ministry. My personal commitment to Christ consists of committing myself to the purpose God has placed on my life. This consists of honoring Him in every endeavor through my college years. I will commit myself to sharing His word with others, follow His guidance and allow His light to shine through me to others.
While attending Howard University School of Nursing and Allied Health Science to attain a degree in nursing, I intend not only to further my education to be successful, but to grow in knowledge and wisdom, as well as nurture my independence.

On July 27, 2005, I became the second of the two children for Ashlee Stout. I graduated from La Marque High School ISD with a 93.8/3.7 GPA, ranked 13 out of 136 students. I was on the football team for four years, the basketball team for two years and the soccer team for two years. I volunteered with Mrs. Nakisha Paul Door to Door Campaigning. I was also a member of the Bobby Beach Little League. My hobbies include playing sports and video games. I enjoy hanging out with my friends and family. My plans are to attend Prairie View A&M University.Progressive Missionary Baptist Church is my church home and where Reverend Jonathan Steele Sr., is my pastor. I participated in Sunday School, Bible Study, VBS, Youth Choir, Jr. Usher, and Jr. Deacon. I am also active in the South Texas Congress. I committed my life to Christ at the age of 5. I joined Progressive Baptist Church and remains a faithful member to present. I admit, I have fallen short in some of my duties due to the pandemic, but I truly believe God is alive and well. I know all things are possible through Him. Though my attendance was not at 100%, my faith in Christ never wavered. I regularly witness to my peers and share my testimonies regarding my relationship with Christ. I am committed to serve to and step up in my Christian duties.
It is my prayer to attend Prairie View A&M University in the fall, at present, I am not committed to a major course of study. My thoughts are Mechanical Engineering with a focus on Welding and secondly, Culinary, but unfortunately Prairie View doesn’t offer this as a Major. Whatever I decide, with the guidance of the Lord, family, and counselors, I plan to be the best at it.
