Wellesley High School has given me amazing education, and the teachers are very supportive of their students. The school culture is generally very uplifting and positive, however, there is a major lack of racial diversity.

I was highly active in high school by being a class officer, two presidents for clubs, founding a club, and three-sport captains. I was always seeking a way to make Wellesley High School better. The staff was supportive of me as I aimed to change the school.

Two of our four child...
