Emma Pritchard has been attending Urbana High School for 4 years now. She has had an opportunity to attend a variety of classes and meet a lot of new people. Her favorite course she's taken has been child development because she enjoys teaching children. This was a great opportunity for her since she plans to study to become an elementary school teacher after high school. 

When she isn't in the classroom, Emma likes to attend the school football games. “Watching the team win brought a different type of school spirit that I can’t feel anywhere else.” These are the events that she will remember when she thinks back on her high school years. 

Apart from attending school-wide events she also enjoys hanging out with friends and taking care of her deaf and blind twin brother.

“Many people don’t know that I have a twin brother though he has had such a big impact on me, he inspired me to want to take care of people when I am older.”

Some of her other hobbies include listening to music. Emma would consider herself an avid music listener. She shared that her favorite artist is Taylor Swift. Similar to Taylor’s music, Emma’s music taste is very sporadic. It was difficult but if she had to pick one genre it would be indie rock. 

Similar to her music taste, Emma's childhood was very distinct. Growing up she spent a lot of time in Europe since that is where her family is from. If she had the choice to move anywhere in the world, she would choose England. “Everything is close together and within walking distance and it is also a beautiful historic place. I would never get tired of it.” 

After high school, Emma plans to spend a lot of time with friends and make this summer the most memorable one before she heads off to college.
