What are your winter break plans?

Freshman Jenny Hong: “Every year, my youth group goes on a winter retreat. We usually go to Perfect North to go skiing and it’s really fun to hang out with friends and enjoy the winter weather together.”

Senior Kelly Herman: “My family and I go to our lake house every year that’s just outside of Fort Wayne to celebrate New Years. We have a tradition where we eat raspberry ice cream with sprite. I personally don’t like it but my family does.”
Senior Nathaniel Bledsoe: “I’ll be hanging out with my family and my friend invited me to his grandma’s house in Zionsville. I’ll also be swimming the entire break because (the team and I) are determined to win state this year.”

English Teacher Kristi Leveque: “I’ll be doing lots and lots of grading over winter break. But, besides that, I’m traveling to Michigan to visit family. I have a feeling I’ll be putting together lots of lego sets from Santa Claus this year.”
