Larissa Peterson: Senior Spotlight

1. When did you start at SES?
  • 9th Grade
2. What were your favorite classes and/or extracurriculars?
  • Theatre, AP Biology, and the Florida State Spanish Competition
3. What’s an unforgettable memory from school?
  • Spending the past 4 years with Maia on our own personal bench. Each lunch was a time I looked forward to, not only for the break in classes but also for the time we got to share in the best spot in school. 
4. Give a shoutout to your favorite class, teacher, mentor or coach.
  • Ms. Buckley, thank you so much for being such a great teacher and fostering my interest in biology into a passion I want to continue. You're always so much fun to talk to and I've had some of the best times hanging out in AP 7th Period. Best class by far!
5. What’s one piece of advice you’d give to an underclassman?
  • Don't stress over the small stuff. In the end, when you look back, even the bad memories will be looked back at with fondness, so make sure to make every moment you can be proud of, even when things don't work out so well.
