What is/was your favorite class at Pius X, and why? I love Anatomy and Physiology because I hope to go to nursing school and I love learning about the body.
How has your faith journey evolved during your time at our school? Are there particular experiences or programs that have significantly impacted your spiritual growth? Coming to Pius X as a freshman has impacted my life in so many ways, especially transforming my spiritual life. Being part of campus ministry, encounter leader, and a discipleship group has taught me so many things. I learned to love and grow in my faith more than I could ever imagine.
What are you most proud of about your time at Pius X? I am super proud of stepping of our my comfort zone, learning new things, trying new things, making new friends, and living out my faith more and more each day.
Where are your plans after high school (college, military, job, etc.)? What do you plan to study? My dream job is becoming a register nurse so I plan on going to SCC for my first 2 years, then go to UNMC for nursing school!
