Michael Nguyen, Class of 2023

“During my time at SM, I’ve been able to pursue many of my passions, whether through classes or clubs. Photography is one of my hobbies, and I had fun creating projects in my photography elective. The class is really chill; I already knew how to take photos and work a camera, but the class teaches the basics to beginners as well. The teacher, Mrs. Fields, was one of my favorites. Alongside photography, I like to play tennis and was on the JV tennis team freshman year. I am also a member of the Pre-Med Club.

Throughout my time at SM, I’m grateful to have met so many great friends. The Eagle community is supportive and the teachers here are always willing to help.  This year, my favorite class would probably be AP Biology because I’m thinking of pursuing a career in the medical field. I’ll never forget the worm dissection freshman year. Our lab group told our teacher it was a defective worm. It wasn’t.”
