Next we interviewed Tony Marschall:

Lastly, we interviewed Zoe Schuele

Where are you planning on going after high school?

Zoe: “I will be attending Multnomah University in Oregon”

What are you planning on majoring in?

Zoe: “I will be majoring in Psychology.”

Have you toured the Multnomah campus, if so what were the drawing elements of it?

Zoe: “I have toured the campus. I like it because it is far enough outside Portland where I don’t feel like I’m right in the city, but close enough where there is a lot to do. It is also just in a beautiful part, where the beach and mountains are all within an hour of me. The campus is really nice, and I felt like it was the perfect size for me.

These are just a few of the many stories of seniors at Holy Family and we are all so excited to hear more about what these amazing students will do in the future.
