Sarah, Comox Valley Grad 2021

𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟏 - 𝐌𝐞𝐞𝐭 𝐒𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐡

Sarah lights up a room, however, her magical quality extends beyond that, she has the ability to subsequently shine and put the spotlight on others - it is pretty spectacular. The weather was threatening some big rain and wind, but in true Sarah style we went for it, and I am so glad we did.

Someone who is very important to me and a role model to many students, Jennifer Riley, has been the biggest support for me. From seeing her in choir three times a week, sneaking into her room to eat lunch, and learning from her in community theatre productions, Jen has been a positive and hilarious influence; helping me foster my love for the arts.

My best memory was the Isfeld senior band trip to New York in 2019. We toured the city, saw spectacular broadway musicals (Wicked and Dear Evan Hansen), and ate REALLY good food!

This fall, I am attending the University of Alberta, as both my parents and aunt did before me. It is a dual degree for a Bachelor of Arts (drama) and a Bachelor of Education (secondary school)! I’m excited for the experience, but not so much the snow!
