 My
name is Olivia. I am sixteen years old. I have lived in
Greenwich for ten years.
One of the best things about growing up in
Greenwich is attending
Greenwich
High School. One
of the reasons I love attending the high school is the education. With
a course book the size of any college course book, you really cannot
go wrong in choosing courses you would like to take. What truly makes
these courses so interesting are the teachers. All of them have
something interesting to say and really challenge the students.
Greenwich
High School is
really something special. |
