watched their online um open house and then came in for a tour and I loved how small and nice it was and how kind everyone seemed everyone seemed very accepting and I'd always been kind of the odd went out so um I think I thought this would be a really good fit for me well I was at a really big school before and I needed to change my environment and I came here and I felt really welcome and I feel like it was a good place to be because the music program was nice uh I chose the school because it's a really small magnet school and I like not having a giant campus my mom originally chose the school because she said I had a neck for writing so she chose a journalism School I chose it because it was just generally small and also my best friend was also growing here so you know just that I like music and I heard a lot about this Cole's music department that's that's the reason uh I chose to go to Antonio promina high school because a lot of the schools in my area weren't really the best for me so when I found out about this school and that it was small and focused on journalism I figured it could be a fresh start for me all right thank you and that's a wrap on the go interviews thank
