  Favorite Seton Tradition 

  This tradition is a well-known one, but I love the Big Sister/Little Sister program. I loved the fact that I had someone to guide me through the school year. My big sister was really nice and it was even better knowing that she was on the tennis team with me.

   

  Extra-curricular Activities

  My freshman year, I decided to keep it small so the only activity i participated in was tennis. I loved everything about it. The bus trips, the wins, and the restaurants we went to. It was a great first experience or playing competitively. My teammates were also really nice on the first day of tryouts and we all got really close by the first month.

   

  Favorite Class

  My favorite class is Health. Even though we only had it for half a semester, my notebook was filled with notes from class. Every learning style was included which was amazing. I learned so many things from the class and was engaged in every class discussion.

   

  Favorite Teacher

  My favorite teacher is Señora Gerber. She’s nice, patient, with every student, and keeps us entertained all while keeping it on a professional level. She is also always there to help. I can’t think if a single time where I went in her room and she wasn’t there to help me better understand something.

Now, most communication takes place through emails as it is hard to properly articulate problems that we are having.

  One of my favorite Seton traditions occurs on Field Day.

  Extra-curricular Activities

  Favorite Class

  LEAD because each assignment is a new "challenge" and the feeling I get when I complete it is similar to winning a lacrosse/soccer game. The last assignment was to build a house and then equip it with a system that detects a fire, alerts the "people", and suppresses it. I didn't get to compete because of the virus but after many trials we completed it.

   

  Favorite Teacher

  I really can't choose one teacher. I feel like a great thing about Seton is that all of the teachers are invested in us as not just students but people who have lives outside of school. I can positively say that each one of my teachers has had an impact on me outside of schoolwork at least once during the past three years.

   

  How have you been able to stay connected to your Seton Sisters while distance learning? 

  Yes; via texts, facetime, and social media

   

  Describe the Seton Spirit

  Okay so the Seton sisterhood sounds like this big cliché, but I promise it's true. At Seton, no matter what "group" you're in, everyone cares about each other. Your sports, clubs, programs, and classes do not put a limit on the special connections you can make at Seton. When I think of the Seton sisterhood I picture this past year during soccer playoffs.  Our team was facing elimination against some really good teams and almost everyone in the school showed up to support. It was not just “the athletes” or the people “into sports”. It was girls from every area of the Seton community. And they didn't just show up once, they showed up to every game until it was over. 

   

  One thing so far about distance learning that you have found yourself appreciating. 

  Haha I like being able to choose when I have lunch.

   

  Best memory from your Seton experience so far.

  Freshman year during spirit week my class beat the senior class in tug of war for the "championship" and even though it was a small event in the whole competition it was still like really cool. Since it was the first spirit week we were basically the babies on campus and we took out the people who had been there forever.
