Fun fact: I am a huge Swiftie as well as a big fan of Broadway musicals!I wished I’d known: to take advantage of more of the co curriculars! There are so many amazing group experiences that are part of the co curriculars offered by this cluster, and I wish I had made the time to attend co curriculars more than once per quarter!

Benefit of taking a cluster: I loved the consistency of the class lasting a whole year—this gave me the opportunity to build connections with faculty and teaching staff as well as develop long lasting friendships with other students! The cluster was a constant I could always count on throughout all the changes and adjustments of freshman year!
