Emily Smittipatana, a 7th-grade student in Springs’ Venture Online program, is a talented golfer. In April, she earned 3rd place at the Catalina Junior Golf Tournament; she hopes to compete in the Toyota Junior Golf Cup when she’s in high school.
She is pleased to be part of Springs’ Venture Online program as its flexibility allows her to play golf and engage in other interests. She is currently taking 8th-grade English and high school algebra 1, and she’s earned straight A’s since kindergarten. She loves learning through real-world experiences, especially when it comes to art and history. She’s traveled all over the world—one of her favorite stops was visiting the Eiffel Tower in Paris—and even got to spend a day with astronaut John Herrington. Other interests include collecting figurines and playing video games.
