Education

Because you are still in high school or about to graduate, it is proper to list your education as the next category because most of your skills were learned in school and it is your most recent accomplishment.  

You will most likely find yourself revising your résumé 5 to 10 years from now. When you do, the work experience should be listed before education because you will have acquired even more skills through this experience.  The only reason to keep education category after the summary is if  you are revising your résumé because you have just graduated from college. 

Your résumé will now look something like this.
