I chose Crystal because the moment I stepped onto the campus in 5th grade for my shadow day, I could immediately see what a unique community it was! Reflecting on my visit, one particular moment demonstrated this most clearly. I have been playing basketball since 2nd grade.  Every day at recess, the boys at my elementary school would play on the blacktop. My parents would encourage me to play with them so I could get more practice, but I never felt comfortable enough. However, during my shadow day, I ended up spending lunch playing basketball with my shadow buddy and some other 6th graders in the gym. I felt comfortable playing with kids I had only known for a few hours, whereas I had never wanted to play with kids I had known for years at my elementary school! I knew then that Crystal was where I wanted to be.
