"It takes a special person to truly love learning. Senior Lydia Brutvan is no exception. From a young age, she showed many signs of a bright future. It’s safe to say, she has done everything possible to reach her true potential."
“As a senior, Nik obviously has college and a future career to think about. However, with so many interests, he finds it difficult to choose just one thing. A versatile student, Nik has been a part of track, snow club, engineering club, and ultimate frisbee. He even worked as a chef at the Mohonk Mountain House. Although he has a wide range of career opportunities to choose from, Nik has become interested in law and is hoping to find out exactly what he wants to do in college.”
"It is evident that Amanda Gorman will stand by the sides of honorable young voices, such as Malala Yousafzai, Greta Thunberg, and Emma González, who advocate for a better quality of life."
"'I have always been a teacher. Even when I was younger and had babysitters, I would play teacher with them. I also come from a long line of teachers in my family."'
"'It still doesn’t feel real,' Laila says. In late September, Laila began her rigorous American Idol journey. Virtual audition after virtual audition, yes after yes, Laila found herself with a plane ticket to San Diego, California, and the opportunity to audition in front of the stars she grew up with."
"'I would be a different person today if I wasn’t a teacher,” says Mrs. Hayden. “My students make me a better person.'"
