Congrats Lizzy!

Meet Elizabeth "Lizzy" Roberts, a history-maker from the West High Class of 2026. Lizzy describes her time as a Wahawk as Guiding, a journey that helped her find her path as both a scholar and a standout student-athlete.
ㅤ
Lizzy’s favorite memories are rooted on the wrestling mat. She was a member of the very first sanctioned girls' wrestling team at West, a group that became more like a family than a roster. With their support, she pushed through the mental and physical rigors of the sport to qualify for State as a freshman. This fall, she’s taking that competitive spirit to Coe College, where she will be part of their first-ever women’s wrestling team while studying Kinesiology to become a licensed athletic trainer.
ㅤ
Reflecting on how West High shaped her discipline, Lizzy shares:
"West has prepared me for my future in many ways... helping me build a steady schedule and develop my time management. Especially being a student-athlete, you need to constantly be aware of the time you have so as to evenly divide it between practice and school work."
ㅤ
Lizzy’s advice for the girls following in her footsteps is deeply personal: "Don't let your self-worth be dictated by those around you or by comparing yourself to others. Don’t let anyone influence you to go against your morals or aspirations. Soak up every bit [of high school] you can."
I am West. 🍎🤼‍♀️

Congrats and well said, Day Day!

Meet Daniesha Watson, a focused and community-minded member of the East High Class of 2026. Looking back on her journey, Daniesha describes her time as a Trojan in one word: Memorable.
ㅤ
Daniesha made the most of the diverse academic opportunities at East, challenging herself with a heavy load of Pre-IB, IB, AP, and concurrent enrollment courses. This rigorous path has prepared her for her next big step: attending the University of Northern Iowa. There, she plans to major in Spanish and earn certificates in Linguistics and American Sign Language (ASL) to pursue her goal of becoming a professional Spanish interpreter.
ㅤ
Reflecting on how East High equipped her for the next level, Daniesha says:
"East High School helped prepare me for the rigorous expectations and curriculum of college classes by providing Pre-IB, IB, AP, and concurrent classes."
ㅤ
When she wasn't hitting the books, Daniesha was making lasting connections, citing her junior prom as her favorite high school memory. Her advice for future Trojans is all about exploration and community: "Take however long you need to discover what you want to do... Learn more about your community and how you can get involved; it can improve your networking skills."
ㅤ
I Am a Trojan. 🧡🤟
