Third marking period Renaissance Star: Sophomore Carly Crofcheck

Every marking period the Renaissance Club chooses two students from each grade level as Renaissance Stars from nominations made by the teachers.

Mr. Cammarata chose sophomore Carly Crofcheck for the honor of Renaissance Star.

Mr. Cammarata’s quote:

“Carly has been a key part of the success of the Eagle Eye this year. She is always willing to take on assignments and her writing continues to improve. She’s not afraid to take on difficult and challenging stories and she is willing to go through as many revisions and rewrites as necessary to get a story right. One of her stories was already accepted by the Best of Student Newspapers Online and helped to qualify the Eagle Eye for a national award.”

Eagle Eye: What do you think about being named a Renaissance Star?

Carly Crofcheck: I feel privileged to be named a Renaissance star! I don’t think I ever was before.

EE: What are some goals that you hope to accomplish this year?

CC: This school year, I hope to keep up with getting straight A’s. Also to improve my test scores in challenging classes and I hope to go to Districts in track for Javelin.
