Standout Student<br />
Sponsored by Marquette Bank<br />
don’t know about you?<br />
A lot of people don’t<br />
know that I’m usually the<br />
youngest in my whole<br />
grade (example: on the first<br />
three days of sixth-grade, I<br />
was still 10).<br />
Madison Grech,<br />
Century Jr. High<br />
sixth-grader<br />
Madison Grech was chosen<br />
as The Orland Park Prairie’s<br />
Standout Student because she<br />
excels both inside and outside<br />
the classroom, according to her<br />
teachers. Her work ethic, classroom<br />
participation and ability<br />
to work with peers reportedly<br />
contribute to her success. She<br />
enjoys participating in Century’s<br />
music program, along<br />
with many other extracurricular<br />
activities.<br />
What is one essential you<br />
must have when studying<br />
and why?<br />
I have to have peace and<br />
quiet in order to concentrate,<br />
because if I don’t, I get distracted,<br />
and then I can’t remember<br />
what I am studying.<br />
What do you like to do when<br />
Photo Submitted<br />
not in school or studying?<br />
I love to play piano and<br />
cello, when I am not at swim<br />
practice for POSA or doing<br />
homework.<br />
What is your dream job and<br />
why?<br />
My dream job is to be a<br />
pilot, because I have always<br />
loved going on airplanes,<br />
and it would be amazing to<br />
actually be in the pilot’s seat<br />
steering it.<br />
What is one thing people<br />
Whom do you look up to and<br />
why?<br />
I look up to my mom, because<br />
she is very smart and<br />
intelligent.<br />
What is your favorite class<br />
and why?<br />
My favorite class is Spanish,<br />
because I am Spanish<br />
but don’t speak it that much,<br />
but in that class I am learning<br />
so many new words that<br />
I never knew in Spanish.<br />
What is one thing that<br />
stands out about your<br />
school?<br />
I think that all of the very<br />
nice staff and students really<br />
make our school stand out.<br />
What is your best memory<br />
from school?<br />
My best memory is when<br />
I met my best friend on the<br />
first day of school.<br />
Standout Student is a weekly<br />
