Irving Middle School
The Park School


On life at The Park School: "Park is really rigorous. I enjoy the whole school. In rocket club we designed, built, and then tested rockets. Mine went the highest. Engineering was a major theme of that club. The community here is great: teachers and students help each other out. Teachers enhance students' abilities in class. I like Spanish - we go really fast, but at the same time we learn."

Future goals: "I want to be a neurosurgeon. I like to deal with microscopic things. We get to do that every day in science class at Park, as we study organisms, fossils, and the history of the Earth."

Activities and interests: Soccer, basketball, track
