HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT OF THE MONTH

December 2020 - Joseph B.

Our CAVE staff nominated Joseph B. as our December High School Student of the Month because he works ahead in his classes, he is taking a very hefty course load and he is very easy to work with.

Joseph loves building and competing in combat robot competitions. Some of his pictures show his interest in this hobby. Joseph is also a drummer and enjoys that skill as well.

When asked what he like best about CAVE, Joseph stated that he likes the flexibility that CAVE offers. He is able to focus on his hobbies without being stressed out about school. Joseph's favorite class right now is Physics. He stated that it is hard, but the equations are all really practical for him because he can use them in when working with his combat robots.

Joseph has some advice for students interested in our CAVE program. He states that it is really nice to be able to work ahead. If you do, you are able to take a break when you are not as motivated or if you have other commitments. You don't need to be weeks ahead, just a few days ahead is enough most of the time.

After high school, Joseph would like to be a mechanical engineer. He has wanted to be one since he was 6 years old. After working for a while and saving enough money up, he wants to start his own company.

Joseph also mentioned that although this is his first year in our CAVE program, his experience with the current system and people running CAVE has been incredible. He likes our CAVE program much better than traditional high school.

Congratulations Joseph on being our High School Student of the Month and thank you for choosing CAVE.

MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENT OF THE MONTH

December 2020 - Ambriella E-N.

Our CAVE staff nominated Ambriella as our December Middle School Student of the Month because she works hard, she asks good questions and she likes to work ahead in her classes.

Ambriella likes to dance, kayak, snowboard, ride horseback, read, spend time with animals and contortion (see pictures above).

When asked what is her favorite thing about our CAVE program, Ambriella stated the kind and helpful teachers. Here favorite classes are History and Science.

Ambriella's advice to other students is to work ahead so that you don't get behind, especially if you are not able to do school for some reason.

After high school, Ambriella would like to join her mom's health and wellness business, as well as have a cat rescue sanctuary. Right now, Ambriella has 7 kittens and 2 adult cates. They were all rescued off the side of the road or from someone who were not able to take care of them. Her newest kittens, Hope and Faith, are currently 5 weeks old. She also has to mention her lovable border collie Trixie, who was her birthday present last summer.

Congratulations Ambriella on being our Middle School Student of the Month and thank you for choosing C.A.V.E..
