The community. Since we are a small school<br />

everyone knows each other and treats you like<br />

family and there are not many places like that.<br />

What person in your life has impacted you<br />

the most and why?<br />

My mom because her strong, kind, and dependable<br />

I have had several teachers that have impacted<br />

me starting from kindergarten all the way to high<br />

school. But the person who has impacted me the<br />

most is the former head of school, Dr. Phillip<br />

Broome. Even though every morning he was<br />

blowing leaves out in front of the school, he never<br />

failed to greet me with a smile and say hey. He<br />

taught me how to be a great leader and to be an<br />

asset not a liability. He also had a great love for<br />

the school and all of the students.<br />
