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

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 character development that a child from Cambridge should always get. The ability to speak is far more valuable than the experience because I take what I learn in those environments! 

What did you like most about CRLS? Why?
I love the community. We are one of the most diverse schools and that’s what makes us so special. Everyone’s like a family

What is something people unfamiliar with CRLS should know about the school? Why?
Varieties of classes that offer so much opportunity

What advice would you give incoming freshmen about CRLS?
Play a sport, join a club, never fail to take a stand! Be the person everyone can talk about positively.
