On Tuesday, I walked to one of my favorite places on campus: the house of my advisor, Dr. Lanier!

Spring at Groton School feels like the whole campus wakes up again. After months of cold weather and rushing from building to building, everyone finally heads back outside. The Circle fills up almost instantly with people lying in the grass, throwing footballs around, listening to music, and staying outside as long as possible before dinner and even after.

Along with the warm weather and fun that come with spring term, my favorite part of the term is often track season. This winter, I sprained my ACL mid-swim season, leaving me with a growing excitement for track. Each year, my community through track has grown and allowed me to connect with friends I would have never met otherwise.

Five days before the start of spring term, the rowing team returned to campus for an intense and fun series of preseason practices! This was my second year on the girls varsity srew team as a coxswain, and since crew is the only physical sport I participate in, spending spring term afternoons on the water with my teammates is something I look forward to every year.
