Technical Difficulty Update
Welcome to my portfolio! Unfortunately, I have been having some technical difficulties. Some pieces of documentation were missing earlier this year. I think that I have resolved this now, but please let me know if you find anything looks out of order or missing. Please be mindful of this when viewing this portfolio. Thank you for being understanding of this!
Senior Year

Fine ArtsI'm studying Pottery for Fine Arts. I will be making connections to culture here and creating pieces using techniques and styles from other cultures. Additionally, I will be learning about the significance of different types of pottery and styles in these cultures.

World LanguageAfter being away from my French education and immersed in another language I was in a funky position. At the beginning of the year I was put a year ahead in French, but had forgotten some basic parts of the language. I decided I was in a place where it would be better for me to do this study independently. I will be taking the AP French exam at the end of the year. This a guiding piece to my learning to an extent.

While in India, I stayed in a host family and went to a local Indian school. In my family, we spoke the local language in the state of Gujarat, Gujarati.
