I got to talk to Burke about many things that he likes about this school. His responses are located below.

Q: Are you excited to leave high school behind?

A: “Yes, I am excited to leave high school. Just because I cannot wait to go to a lot of new places and meet many new people. But, part of me is not excited because I will not be able to see my friends from Lakewood High School.”
