I’m Caitlin Terry. I graduated in 2018.

00:00:06.762 --> 00:00:08.170
I also go to Beacon Academy

00:00:08.831 --> 00:00:11.882
I came in at 4th grade at Chiaravalle, 
and like Teagan said,

00:00:12.255 --> 00:00:14.251
it’s really a place to be happy, 
but also to learn

00:00:14.591 --> 00:00:17.802
I can make connections that I would not 
have been necessarily taught

00:00:18.207 --> 00:00:20.298
and then be able to go back and think,

00:00:20.663 --> 00:00:22.644
“Oh, those two things are connected 
and I remember that.”

00:00:23.690 --> 00:00:25.855
I was in math at Chiaravalle.

00:00:26.143 --> 00:00:29.759
I was trying to do three years of math 
in two years of actual school,

00:00:30.015 --> 00:00:31.279
which was really hard.

00:00:31.562 --> 00:00:32.768
But when I went to Beacon,

00:00:33.023 --> 00:00:35.775
I was able to make a really strong 
relationship with my math teacher,

00:00:36.063 --> 00:00:40.543
because he knew it was difficult to be in 
this math group as a Freshman.

00:00:40.916 --> 00:00:43.412
Chiaravalle really let me thrive as an individual.

00:00:43.769 --> 00:00:45.740
Because even as a 6th grader,

00:00:45.983 --> 00:00:49.674
I was like trying to learn things that 
other kids weren’t really interested in

00:00:50.004 --> 00:00:52.500
and it was just a way for me to grow.
