Layla is a smart, outgoing, confident girl. She started dancing at age 3 and competed in her first dance competition at age 4. Always on the honor roll or the principal's list. She loves to entertain everyone, whether it is dancing, acting, or just talking. Though sports are not really her thing, she is athletic. Layla is a petite 11 year old girl, it has been guessed that she was a 9 year old but she is rather mature for her age. Always very in tune with others feelings, she is a very devoted friend. She can do anything she sets he mind to. Once she thought she couldn't wear contacts, til she found out a girl younger than her had been wearing them for 2 years. We didn't leave the doctor's office til she was able to get them in. Great determination and spunk.

I love dancing, drawing, swimming, & jumping on my trampolene. My family and friends are VERY important to me, for without them I wouldn't be who I am. I start middle school this coming year and I plan to take drama and art. I want to be on the yearbook staff but I don't know if 6th graders can. I love hanging out with my friends and shopping.

I would LOVE to start acting!! I've been dancing for 8 years now and I love to entertain. I want to try acting. I love to be in front of the camera. One day I want to see my name in lights.
