Grade I joined Crystal: 9th

Graduation Year: 2027

Interests/Activities: Volleyball, Basketball, Marine Bio and Conservation Club

I chose Crystal because of the rigorous academics and focus on athletics. The expertise of the faculty and the knowledge I have gained at Crystal, even though I have only been here for one year, are beyond anything I would have expected. I was uncertain of what attending Crystal would be like, knowing that academic life may be challenging and I wouldn't have as much free time, but I have found that there are many ways to stay flexible with your academic schedule and the teachers are very supportive and accommodating. Something else that stood out about Crystal for me was the athletic programs. Even though it is a small school, the accomplishments made in various sports are beyond amazing. I love to play volleyball and basketball, and even though I’m not the best at either, I have been able to participate in both and help develop the athletic program.
