As the school year ends, seniors at Northwood are looking forward to graduation and summer break. From exotic vacations to first jobs, this summer will be a busy one, with a wide range of activities and experiences.
Many seniors are planning to travel with family and friends, taking advantage of the warm weather and a few months off from studying. Some are heading to the beach to relax, while others are exploring new cities or going camping. Whether it’s a big international trip or a road trip close to home, travel is something students are really looking forward to. Here are a few highlights:
Henry Kress ’26 is going to France and off to Croatia.
Autumn Kelly ’26 is traveling to England with her dad and granddad.
Jacob Slagel ’26 is traveling to Latvia and Ireland.
Leanne Aubut-Laurin ’26 will be going to Saint Tropez in the south of France with her family and will be attending the horse races in Saratoga.
Music is another big highlight of the summer. Concert season is in full swing, and students have their tickets purchased to see their favorite artists. Outdoor festivals and stadium tours offer fun nights out with friends and are often the highlight of the summer. Here are some of the events Northwood seniors are attending:
Angel Ji ’26 is going to the raves in Spain.
Anna Monette ’26 will be going to Sam Barber in Florida.
Adam Sherman ’26 is going to a concert festival back home in Saratoga.
Sara Martin ’26 will be going to Bluesfest, a concert festival back home in Ottawa.
While summer is a time to be out with friends and have fun, another big part of the break is having a summer job. From working at a camp, landscaping, or a golf course, to working at a store in a shopping mall, it is time for students to gain valuable work experience and make some money. Here is where a few seniors will be spending their time working this summer:
Devin Smith ’26 will be making ice cream at Dairy Queen back home in Denver.
Thiago Cesar ’26 is working in Nashville as a coach for the younger kids at Black Rock.
Edouard Laberge ’26 is going back to his craft at a barbershop in Montreal.
Kevin Betsch ’26 will be doing an internship with California Fire San Diego to explore a possible future as a firefighter.
Summer is shaping up to be a busy time for seniors, with a combination of fun and work. Here’s to hoping it is everyone’s best summer yet.
