A new school year brings a new class of seniors. As the senior traditions pick up for the class of 2024, so does the realization that everything is coming to an end. This year, we’ll take a look at different seniors, taking a snapshot of their life and sharing their story with all.
Senior Mia Hatcher has been at Brownell Talbot since seventh grade. When asked what she loves most about BT, Mia said, “I love the tight-knit community. I know I have so many people to go to when I need help.”
On campus, Mia competes on the varsity volleyball team, varsity powerlifting team, and the varsity track team. Known for her incredible athleticness, it’s no doubt that Mia will end her last year as the star of these teams. She shared, “One of my favorite memories from high school was winning the Frontier Conference championship in volleyball my freshman year.” Apart from sports, Mia is also the Editor-in-Chief of Triangle, which is BT’s yearbook, and is the president of BT’s App Development Team. She is a part of the culture club, working with other students and Señora Navarro to encourage the campus to engage more with all different types of cultures. Along with this club, Mia is a part of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes.
Some of Mia’s favorite classes in high school have been biology and AP biology. She said, “I have always had a love for science, especially learning about cells and anatomy.” When asked which grade has been the most memorable for Mia, she shared, “My favorite grade was 11th grade because I was able to bond with my class, I broke 5 school records in volleyball, and I had a great group of friends.”
As the last year of high school passes on for Mia, she said, “I am sad about high school ending but am very hopeful for the future, and I am excited for what the next few chapters in my life will bring. But for now, I am soaking in every minute of my last year in high school.” This year brings plentiful fun senior traditions, but for Mia, senior prank and senior sunrise are the two she is most excited for.
Mia’s advice for underclassmen was a common but important one: “I would tell underclassmen to do as many activities in high school as you can. You only go to high school once so make it worth it.”
