“Coming into Freshmen year, I had a lot of hope for these next 4 years at Northwood. Now that I am a senior at Northwood, I feel I did pretty well, getting good grades, my pilot’s license, and having a good time skiing, as well as making many friends along the way.
“I am from Saratoga Springs, NY, and living off campus in Lake Placid. The switch from boarding student to day student went well, and my favorite part about it is that I can drive anywhere. It’s cool to be anywhere and have more freedom than a boarding student does.
“I was able to experience a lot of cool trips around the world, including Japan, and others. I learned about many new cultures and became friends with people all over the world. As well, I feel I use all of Northwood School’s core values.
“Now being a senior, I am starting to apply to many colleges, including the Air Force Academy, Montana State University, and Utah State University.
“Leaving high school this year, I will be a little nervous but also excited to see what comes next.”
