“I am a senior and this is my fourth year here. I live here in Lake Placid, four minutes from the school. Growing up, I always wanted to go to Northwood for ski racing, so I am glad I made the switch from public school to Northwood. I have made many friends and met so many great people.
“Some of my favorite things to do here during the school year are going into town with my friends, watching hockey games, skiing, and doing other various activities that the school provides.
“My favorite things about Northwood are the opportunities it provides; not only can I get into a great college, but I can pursue skiing to its highest level. Northwood provides the perfect balance between school and sports. I can get an amazing education while still skiing at the highest level possible at my age. During the summer I mountain bike and go golf with my boys.
“My favorite thing about the Northwood community is its inclusivity; everyone can find a place at Northwood, no matter who you are or what your background is, there is a group for you. Northwood is the best school, in my opinion, as it provides a perfect balance of everything. I am unbelievably grateful for this opportunity and cannot wait to see what my future holds.
“After high school, I want to get onto a good Division 3 ski team while majoring in business management or marketing.”
