[Stephi Rae]

I attend an "alternative highschool" in the Seattle area, called Aviation High School. We are only three years old, and as a member of the inaugural class, the class of 2008, we have basically been seniors the entire time and been able to form the school pretty much on our own. It has been an amazing experience. This is the first year that we have had a FIRST team, and it has only further opened my educational opportunites and solidified my aspirations. I'm not sure if this is exactly what you are looking for, but I am more than happy to answer any questions that you have about my school, or education, etc. and I can connect you with others from my school. We all have uniques stories, aspirations, and experiences both from our school and FIRST.

(my school is basically a math, science, and technology college preparation high school (sometimes considered a magnet school, but I don't think that really captures the point) with an aviation emphasis, and offers us unique opportunities in preparing for college, career, and citizenship)
