- Activities
- I have been Elizabeth’s counselor for the past four years admiring her intelligence, creativity, and commitment to service. She will not be the student that strives to get your attention or wants her name in lights, but she will be one of your hardest workers and most dedicated members. Elizabeth is mature, dependable, intelligent, and gracious. She has used her high school years wisely and is fully prepared for the next step in her future. Elizabeth’s academic record is pleasing. She has carried a 4.0 GPA while taking a rigorous course load. In addition to the 3 English honors classes throughout her years here, Elizabeth will have earned a minimum of 16 college credits through Nothern State University by the time she graduates. She is also currently taking AP Chemistry and Spanish IV both having the potential to earn her more college credit. She excels academically while remaining grounded. Within this balance she has also been involved in powerlifting, track and field, SALSA, Student Council, Orchestra, environmental club, and the Lynx Lookout (school newspaper). Her leadership has spread among all areas in our building. She was even chosen as Cello section leader in orchestra where she was able to show her true leadership potential. Just as important as school involvement, Elizabeth has also volunteered and worked within our community. She has volunteered at the Humane Society and Sioux Falls Butterfly house and aquarium. She also started her own online home bakery in addition to offering private piano lessons. She has also worked for the Cliff Avenue Greenhouse since April 2023. Her talents are uniquely varied and equally impressive. I believe she has used high school as a stepping stone for bigger and better things in her future. I guarantee if you have not yet met her, you will be impressed.
