Stepping into the student commons during fourth period, many students will recognize freshman Kevin Little running around from one place to another.
Little, despite being a freshman, is extremely involved in many clubs and activities ranging from freshman cabinet to debate.
“Being part of freshman cabinet and student government makes me feel more involved and like I have a voice in the school,” Little said.
Little is also taking a theater workshop, a class making a big impact in the beginnings of his high school career.
“I’m interested in theater and I really want to become an actor, a performer, or an entertainer of some sort,” he said.
Walking into Niles West, Little admits he felt nervous, but excited at the same time. Now, he feels like Niles West has become a second home.
“I was nervous because it’s a big school and I’d have more classes, but I was excited at the same time too. Now, I think Niles West has become sort of a home,” said Little.
With finals approaching quickly, Little says he’s a bit stressed. Being a freshman, he says his teachers are putting a lot of pressure on them to do well on their first final ever.
“Gosh, at this point, I’m just hoping I don’t fail,” Little said, laughing.
