She has previously been named a Student of the Month at CLCS, and last spring she was inducted into the National Technical Honor Society. Outside of school, Bry enjoys hunting, shooting trap, hiking, camping, kayaking, and snowmobiling. When asked what historical person she admires, Bry replied, “My parents and grandparents. They’re hardworking and always manage to handle any twist that comes at them in life.” Bry would not like to be another person for a day because, “I like who I am.” She plans to attend college to study heavy equipment operation or agriculture.

She would like to become a doctor and work for Doctors Without Borders.

Sophomore Hailey Roush, daughter of Dan and Marcy Roush of Mayville, selects geometry and health as her favorite subjects.

This year, she was the captain of the varsity soccer team. She also enjoys singing in the select chorale and is active in the Language Club. Outside of school, Hailey pursues her love of sports by competing in an indoor soccer league; participating in Chautauqua Fusion, a travel basketball team; and helping with Shooting Stars basketball. She also enjoys baking and running. When asked what historical person she admires, Hailey chose Malala Yousafzai “for standing up for female education and fighting for women’s as well as children’s rights. She is also the youngest recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize.” If she could be another person for a day, Hailey would like to be Hope Solo because “she is a two-time Olympic gold medalist and World Cup Champion as a soccer goalkeeper.” Hailey would like to attend college and play soccer at the college level.

Sydney Ryan Hawkins, a freshman, is the daughter of Ryan and Julianne Hawkins of Ripley. She enjoys all of her classes but finds algebra, Spanish, Global Studies, and biology “fascinating.” Sydney is very active in a wide variety of school activities, including High School Bowl, Peer Education, Peer Tutoring and Language Club. She is also an accomplished athlete, competing on the softball and volleyball teams since seventh grade. She twice earned a spot on the All-Tournament Team for volleyball. Sydney also received academic awards in seventh and eighth grade, participated in the Voice of Democracy competition this year, and earned recognition for the Patriot’s Pen essay in grades 6-8. Outside of school, Sydney loves playing sports, reading, writing, exercising, and going for walks. When asked what person she admires, Sydney stated “Those who had the courage to stand up for what they believe in, because they wouldn’t submit to something that defied what they stood for.” For a day, she would like to be Albert Einstein “so that I could experience firsthand how his mind worked.” Her plans involve “taking advantage of all high school opportunities and maintaining a solid work ethic into whatever it is I end up doing. Basically, I want to make the end result worth the journey.”
