Robert Frederick is in his senior year of high school at St. Charles and is in the midst of applying to colleges. He is planning to study mechanical engineering and currently participates in MESA (Math Engineering Science Achievement), robotics club, and a quiz team. Robert writes: “Last summer, I went on a long road trip up north to New England and Canada. I checked out a bunch of colleges, but also explored the towns and cities around them. The summer before that, though, was the coolest one ever. I went on a 3-week bike trip around Nova Scotia, Canada (Canada again!). I had lots of fun camping and riding around the island. I made lots of friends, but even more memories. I learned to appreciate the environment while at Tidewater, and I now volunteer often at the American Chestnut Land Trust.”
