It never seems to fail that the third quarter feels the longest. During the first quarter, we’re all still excited about school’s beginning. The second quarter brings us cooler weather, more football, the beginning of basketball, and, of course, Christmas, just over the horizon. And fourth quarter, well, enough said. The third quarter, though, stretches on endlessly, with dark, cold days keeping us in-doors. What’s a brotherhood to do? Why, play basketball! So, unless something more important comes up, we meet as a school on Thursdays to pit homerooms against one another, two games at a time, until only one homeroom remains.
Growing up with an older brother that went to Catholic High, I knew I wanted to be a part of what he always referred to as “The Brotherhood.” I love that I’m able to explore so many of my interests, from joining Broadcast Journalism and JROTC my freshman year to becoming president of the drama club as a junior. As I get ready for college in two short years, I’m thankful for the opportunities I’ve been given at Catholic High that will help me stand out in the application process.
