Having everyone be treated like family, the school's spirit and ability to be one despite all of our differences.

Since moving to the US in 2022, I’ve enjoyed many different experiences and look forward to seeing what God has in store for my life.
What is your fondest memory of CAM?
Playing football (soccer) during recess is at the top of my list. We had so much fun back then! I cherished the community we had, though I don't think I fully appreciated it at the time. It feels strange even today, knowing that there were only four people in my senior class, but I deeply care for each one of them. Another aspect I value is how CAM encouraged me to develop and express myself through literature, writing, and poetry. I felt truly empowered and equipped to succeed. Today, writing remains one of my most cherished treasures.
