Freshman Friday: Ian Shankar

Freshman Friday: Ian Shankar

Unlike most freshman, Ian Shankar was confident walking into high school despite hearing all the stories of “freshmeat” being picked on and pennied.

 “As long as I put my mind to something I can take it on, which includes the struggles of being a Freshman” Shankar jokingly said.

His favorite class which he’s taking right now is Honors Algebra 2, because not only is it something he’s interested it, but he loves being challenged.

After school, you can catch Ian on the soccer field, as he plays defense for the freshman A soccer team. He also looks forward to volleyball season, and hopes to play back row for the freshman team. Besides looking forward to sport seasons, he’s very excited for his first homecoming, and plans on going with some of his friends. He’s also excited for all the upcoming football games.

 Ian is described by his friends as someone that can always make them laugh, and they know they’ll always have a good time together when they’re with him.

“Hard work and determination is all you need to get you through anything. Put your mind to it, and nobody can stop you,” Shankar said.
