What is something that makes Berwick unique?
I believe what makes Berwick unique is that teachers genuinely care and wish to see you succeed.

What made Berwick stand out in your high school process?
Berwick stood out to me because the students here have an affinity for learning. This was very different from the other school I was looking at, where students seemed to only be at school because they were required to, not because they wanted to learn.

What has been a favorite Berwick classroom moment?
My favorite classroom moment was freshman year English when my teacher had us reviewing for a book test and he was able to step back as we all helped each other review and have fun while doing it.

What aspects of the structure at Berwick allow you to thrive as a student and community member?
The support of my peers and teachers is what really allows me to thrive in this community. With everyone being so supportive, I really feel free to be myself and pursue new interests.


What are the top three things on your Berwick bucket list?
1.) To ring the Fogg bell, 2.) to light a candle during the senior candle ceremony, 3.) to balance a textbook on my head while walking from the 3rd floor of Jepp all the way to the basement of Fogg
