Meet our Star of the Week, Kaetlin Izzo!
This multifaceted student juggles a passion for softball, while also excelling in academics. She does this all while dreaming big about a future in veterinary sciences. Dive into this week's spotlight to discover the wonderful details that makes our star student truly shine.
Q: What clubs, organizations, or extracurricular activities are you involved in, and why?
A: The main sport I am currently involved in is softball. Last year, I did stage crew for the play, was on the basketball team, apart of National Honor Society, and I took a college credit plus course last year.
Q: Share a specific project or event from your involvement in an extracurricular activity that left a lasting impression on you.
A: Softball has. Freshman year we could not get a team together because we only has d 8 people and one person got injured so we could not play. Last year, we got a full team together so I was able to play and we only had a few losses. Also, I did theater last year and it was really fun, I did tech crew for the play and it was cool to be able to hang out with everyone and see what goes on backstage.
Q: What are your future academic or career aspirations?
A: I would like to study at a 4-year university after high school for pre vet studies and equine sciences. I will eventually go to veterinary school and do equine or large animal studies. I would possibly work at a zoo or become a vet for large animals
