- 6 Honors Classes

Tests:
I’m only using my ACT score, b/c it was vastly superior to my SAT, and it covers my SAT 2 requirement, so here it is:

Work Experience:
- 2 summers (10th and 11th):
o Public Library (Summer Reading Mentor; teaching elementary school kids to improve literacy skills)
o Camp Counselor

Miscellaneous:
- Terrific Essay (I think) --- describing my experiences in a “second home” --- West Hartford, and how it has shaped me
