Bio
Khalil learned to roller skate when he was 7. It didn't come easy to him. He fell plenty of times. But he kept getting back up.
"After a while, I got the hang of it," he said. "It's fun."
Now, Khalil is a young teen. He's not sure how many foster families he has stayed with, and it has been quite some time since he has seen his two brothers and two sisters.
Soft-spoken and shy, Khalil is a diligent student. "You learn things and improve yourself," he said. He considers himself neat and respectful.
His proudest achievement is making the honor roll. That's something he's done often, he said. Math is his favorite subject and someday he would like to be an accountant.
Khalil likes to read and watch movies. He's taking a drama class. His favorite role? It was playing a judge. He even had a gavel to bang.
If someone gave him $1 million, Khalil says he wouldn't keep the money.
"I'd give it to someone who needs it," he said.
If he could visit anywhere in the world, Khalil says he would go back to the town where he grew up.
