A Day in the Life...
A Word From Our Students
A Day in the
Life of Taylor, Class of 2011
Today was one of the best days ever
here at Notre Dame! As part of Spirit Week, today was
Blue and Gold day. Everyone in the school decked out in
school colors and we had a enthusiastic pep rally to get
ready for our homecoming football game tonight! It has
been a great week to plan crazy outfits with friends as
well as bond with my fellow classmates. As a member of
Student Council, I will be helping with setting up
everything needed to crown our Homecoming Queen tonight.
After that, I will sit back and cheer on our Crusaders!
When I woke up this morning, I
felt very stressed about getting my college applications
done. This includes finishing my essay and making sure
all of my letters of recommendation are in. But after I
got to school and talked to my guidance counselor, I
felt much better. She reassured me that I had enough
time to do everything and that Notre Dame prepares their
students extremely well for college! In fact, 100% of
our seniors go on to college! I also felt better when
the festivities of Spirit Week and Homecoming were seen
throughout the crazy outfits and colorful posters
portraying our win in the upcoming football game!
In terms of going to college,
Notre Dame is known for its great candidates. There is
no shortage of extracurricular activities! I am a
basketball and softball player, Treasurer of Key Club,
Secretary of National Honor Society, and Secretary of
Student Council! All of these activities certainly keep
me busy, but it is all worth it. In terms of letters of
recommendation, they were easy to get teachers to write
for me because classes are small and teachers really
know my work. They are also very willing to do anything
to help me! As I reflect on my three years and one month
so far here at Notre Dame, I see that everyone has tried
their hardest to help me succeed and has provided me
with a solid base for life.
