What advice or encouragement would you give to younger students at Westminster? Don’t expect senior year to be easy, and don’t slack off in your grades. Come graduation, the summer will feel much sweeter knowing you finished your high school career off strong.

A funny memory or highlight from your time at Westminster: Mr. Dillon walking in the halls

Senior Thesis Title: Re-examining the Priesthood of all Believers
