Q: How would you describe your overall experience at Perspectives MSA?
A: Well, I would say that academically it has been OK because at Perspectives you are considered a big fish in a small pond.
Q:What could have made your MSA experience better or more memorable?
A: I probably could have talked to more people but I like to stay to myself so that’s something I really don’t regret not doing. However, I did meet people that I believe I made lifelong friendships with.
Q: If you had not attended MSA, where would you have gone to high school?
A: If I had not come to MSA, I would have gone to either John Hope, Carver, or Kennedy. My aunt works at John Hope, so she could have gotten me in a program that will help me prepare for college that I could have taken all four years. There was a time when I wanted to go to the military, so I thought that going to a military school would have benefited me for my future then. Kennedy was just a back-up plan.
Q: Do you regret coming to Perspectives? Why or why not?
A: I wouldn’t say that I regret coming here but it was not in my top choices for high schools. My mom thought that it would be a good thing to come here because it was a new school. If the final decision was ultimately up to me, I probably would not have been here. I guess my mom was right in a way. Since MSA was a new school and a charter, the classes were smaller and there is more time I can have with my teachers.
Q: What will you take from away from Perspectives?
A: I will take away to not give up, no matter how hard something seems. Umm … and try to listen to other people’s opinions because you have to be open-minded about stuff, especially in today’s society.
