Senior Spotlight

In what grade did you start at Charlotte Christian?
Grade 4 

How has Charlotte Christian impacted you or made a difference in your life and how has Charlotte Christian prepared you for life after graduation?
Charlotte Christian has introduced me to dozens of amazing people and has continued to both challenge and strengthen my beliefs. Because of my experiences here, I am ready to go forward into the world with the necessary spiritual and academic knowledge to succeed.

Is there a Charlotte Christian teacher, staff member, or coach who had a significant impact on your life and why?
AP World History with Mr. McMullen was a large part of why becoming a history professor is one of my main career considerations. I particularly enjoyed the March madness bracket of important figures and the classes where we pretended to be important leaders across history.

Favorite CCS memory:
On my grade 10  Winterim trip to Peru, we were absolutely soaked during a boat trip, and a small group of us stayed outside and sang Eagles songs while looking at the massive double rainbow. Unforgettable.

What will you miss most about CCS?
I’m going to miss all of the friends I’ve made across grade levels, and I hope that Charlotte Christian remains a place where students can openly speak with and trust teachers.

Advice for future Knights?
Don’t be afraid to step outside of your comfort zone and talk to people who might not fall into your usual social clique.

Favorite spot on campus:
The Media Center — it’s a delightful place to read, study and chat with Mrs. Ramsey.

Favorite FLIK lunch:
Macaroni and cheese + pretzel bread to make a panini sandwich
