Senior Spotlight… Hannah Rajlich

Every week we ask an SJO senior five questions.

This week we talked to Hannah Rajlich.

This post is sponsored by Hoveln Heating and Cooling.

What do you want to do after high school?
After high school I plan to study nutrition at a big university.

What is your favorite thing about SJO?
My favorite thing about SJO is the support we receive from the community and our classmates. Everyone is always cheering you on and happy to see you succeed.

Who is your biggest inspiration?
My biggest inspiration is Coach McD because of his selfless drive and passion.

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
In 10 years I see myself as a nutritionist or dietitian living in a different state with my family and dog.


What is your favorite class and why?

My favorite class at SJO is Spanish with Señor. His class is fun and allows us to learn about a lot more than just Spanish.
