4/7/2025
Shepaug was a good school to go to. Middle school was rough, as it is in most schools. I left to pursue more music opportunities just when covid hit, and I was out for a year and a half. When I went back in my Sophomore year, things were much different for me. I found a niche of students and made great friends. I also had expanded my music network and was able to play in different groups. The Administration was very supportive- specifically Dr Shels, the principal.
