| Name: Anna De La Rosa Age: 14 Grade: 8 I chose: Palm Academy Why? Because I like that the teachers get to know each student. Anna says: “I want to travel the world, learn different recipes and come home and open a restaurant.” She advises new students to do their best, test their limits, and make lots of friends. In addition to cooking, Anna enjoys playing the piano, drawing, and swimming. |
