Q&A: Grace Allen

Q: What do you think has positively shaped your experience at Xavier?

A: Being involved has positively shaped my experience at Xavier. You make countless friends by joining clubs or running for leadership positions.  

Q: Who would you like to thank from over the course of your time in high school? Maybe a teacher who mentored you? A friend who has been there for you?

A: I would love to thank my Executive Board moderator, Mrs. Tesdall. I never thought that a teacher could shape me as an individual. She taught me how to handle leadership with enthusiasm and poise, and I will always cherish my time on the Executive Board, thanks to her.  

Q: What is something you’ve learned at Xavier that you want to take with you in college? (a habit, a mentality, a skill, etc.)

A: I learned the power of being kind to others at Xavier. All it takes to turn around someone’s day is a quick hello in the hallways.
