"My favorite moment from a concert I have been to

"My favorite moment from a concert I have been to is when I met my favorite group face-to-face in April of last year," Mia Mendez ('27) said. "The reason is how much they inspire me and shape me as a person since I have listened to that group since their 1st album came out. It felt so unreal when I saw them so close and was able to share how much I love their music individually to each member. It is a moment I will never forget ."

“Being a senior is honestly something I didn’t think I’d enjoy, but to my surprise, it’s amazing,” Owen Sherrick (‘24) said. “The best part about it is enjoying the time I have with my friends.

The coliseum was magnificent and such a wonder to see. It is insane to me that it was built almost 2,000 years ago. The other part of the trip that was memorable to me was getting to visit the Harry Potter sound stages where they kept a lot of sets from the movies, I am kind of a Harry Potter nerd so I loved every second of being there! I got to see several original sets like the Gryffindor common room and so much more. It was a trip I will never forget!”

I got into it during middle school when the pandemic happened because I had a lot of free time, and I thought that it would be a cool hobby to pick up. I heard from somewhere that SWCTA had an animation class as part of their program, so I applied to the school and got more into drawing and animation once I got in."

"The coolest place I have traveled to is Taipei, T

"The coolest place I have traveled to is Taipei, Taiwan," Alexis Hsi ('26) said. "I would always go there when I was little, and my grandparents would bring me along their trips. The city is big and full of people and the lights are beautiful, especially at night. For transportation, there was an underground subway that allowed passengers with a coin that acts as an ID. I’d always feel great in Taiwan because the weather is always cloudy/rainy, which is also my favorite kind of weather. I always enjoy my trips there, and I would definitely go back."
