I transferred to Aquinas high school the last two months of my sophomore year. Going to a new school and trying to find my place was put on hold for a while due to COVID. Yes, it was hard and a huge adjustment not to just online but to a whole new school. Thankfully though we returned on campus for the last 3 months of my junior year. When we returned I gave myself two options I could either just let the rest of the year end and really try my senior year or make the most of it now and that’s what I did. I made new friends, met new people I also decided to try out for varsity swim and made it! My comfort place has always been the stage so I was great full that Aquinas has a wonderful arts program that helped me push through the nerves of a new place with new people. I’m happy to say that going into my senior year at this newish school I am senior class Vice President along with varsity basketball manager and on varsity swim! So I would say my experience has been great so far.
The school I attended my last four years was Aquinas High School it is a private Catholic school in San Bernardino. I had a very good experience there because of how small it was and everyone knew everybody. Students and staff are very friendly there and make you feel welcome, and it has a lot of diversity within it. The staff is very helpful ,especially the counselors, in helping you make decisions to benefit you for college. I was very involved at Aquinas in clubs, Associated Student Body, Theatre, Soccer, and managing sports. There is a wide variety of things people could participate in while having fun. The teachers at Aquinas want nothing more than to see you succeed and do well there and hope you carry that with you in the future. They are very one on one with you and will meet with you if you need further help. If I had to change one thing at Aquinas it would be for the staff to listen more to what the students want. Overall my experience at Aquinas was wonderful.
My experience at Aquinas High School was amazing! It has a family aspect that helps everyone feel welcomed and supported. Throughout my years here I have grown in my relationship with God, learned life lessons, and made amazing memories. I can now say I am ready to go to college!
