What were some of the out-of-school time (O.S.T) programs that you participated in anytime between grades 6-12?
N/A

How did being enrolled in any O.S.T. program(s) contribute to your success both in and out of high school? 
It gave me the opportunity to connect with new people while also helping me develop strong time-management skills.

What did you like most about CRLS? Why?
I liked a lot about CRLS, what stands out for me is the opportunities that CRLS has to offer. The clubs, the sports, and activities overall is something you can't miss out on. 

What is something people unfamiliar with CRLS should know about the school? Why?
One thing people unfamiliar with CRLS should know is how diverse the student body is. Students come from many different backgrounds, cultures, and experiences, which creates opportunities to learn from people with perspectives different from your own. This diversity helps make the school community more inclusive and prepares students for the broader world.

What advice would you give incoming freshmen about CRLS?
Don’t be a stranger. Put yourself out there, meet new people, and build connections. Everyone is in the same boat, and you never know where a conversation might lead.
