What major or subject area are you planning to pursue in college?

Biology

Why did you choose to attend The Field School?

I chose to attend Field because I really liked the atmosphere of the school; everyone was really inviting. I like how we call teachers by their first names and don’t have a cafeteria,  it makes the school feel homey and less intense. 

What grade level did you enter at Field?

9th

What has been your favorite class at Field and why?

I think my favorite class was Advanced Biology II because we got to do a lot of cool experiments. One experiment I really liked was one where we cultivated bacteria and tested different antibiotics to determine if it had antibiotic resistance. 

What sports/clubs did you take part in at Field?

• Literature Club
• Period 101
• Business Society 

What will you miss most about Field?

My favorite memory from my time at Field is when we had an 11th grade late night and we all watched a movie together and played games. 

What will you miss most about Field?

I will probably miss my teachers and my friends the most. My teachers have all been very nice and have helped me get to where I am today. 

What is your advice for future Field seniors?

My advice for future seniors is not to stress too much during the college process because it will all work out in the end. 

How did Field prepare you for your next chapter?

Field helped prepare me for my next chapter of life by helping me realize what I'm passionate about and what type of environments are best for my learning style.
