High School Student Highlight: Devorah

March 31, 2017

This is our high school star student Devorah. She is an 11th grader who has been with Calpac for over a year now. She said that CalPac has really helped her understand things better than a traditional school. Her two favorite subjects are History and English. These two subjects are very interesting to her because she enjoys reading stories and text. Devorah enjoys learning about the past.

In her spare time, she likes to read, hang out with friends and volunteer. She volunteers at the Cedar Sinai medical center and also at Friendship Circle. She enjoys helping people and really likes reading. She wants to go to college and become a social worker or something in the medical field.

Study tips/advice you have for being successful in school?

Stay on pace and complete work everyday, also write notes during your classes. I write really take good notes and I take the quizzes right away. I have been learning at CalPac how to take good notes. You have to follow up with your teachers if you need help, do not be afraid to ask for help. Success tips: Always get enough sleep and eat a breakfast, lunch and dinner and don't procrastinate otherwise you will end up falling behind. Always use the weekends to catch up if you need to or even the breaks.

Where do you see yourself 10 years from now?

I see myself having a job and having a family.

Her lasting quote is "Happiness could be found in the darkest times if one remembers to turn on the light.”

This is our star student, Devorah!
