I’m an 8th grader who cares deeply about the people around me and values strong friendships. I’m dedicated and hardworking. I love playing tennis because it challenges me to stay focused and push myself to improve. I also enjoy trying new activities, traveling with my family, and stepping outside my comfort zone. I am someone that my friends can count on and often find myself helping people talk through disagreements to find common ground. I am exploring boarding school to become part of a community that can foster my learning both inside and outside of the classroom.
