Tidewater memory:
I remember learning Spanish with Ms. Cecilia, and I remember sitting in an oval with everyone during Kindergarten with Ms. Suzanne and Ms. Jan, and ‘traveling around the world’. I also remember performing a ‘musical’ where we painted the planets and sang about them with the music teacher. The song still gets stuck in my head sometimes…
What I liked most about/life lesson I learned from the school:
I learned how to love learning. Tidewater is the reason I’ve been so successful up to this point. It helped foster my intrinsic motivation and individuality, while also teaching me how to work in a group and encourage others.
Some interesting facts about me:
I plan on getting a masters in renewable energy next year. I just traveled to Nicaragua for a service trip and I’ll be visiting Poland and Lithuania with my best friend in June. I will be graduating in May 2016 from Cornell University with a BS in Materials Science and Engineering.
