Involvement: LASO, In charge of Media for BSU, Soccer, Lacrosse, Grapes, African Drumming

“Hi, I’m Jazmine. I am a senior in the Class of 2027. I came to Walker’s in my junior year. Cicerones are important because when I was a new student last year, they helped me navigate the school and feel welcomed, whether it was on tours or shadow days. I aim to show prospective students that Walker’s is a fun and loving community where you are free to be whoever you want; you can make lots of friends and overall have a great time while you’re here!”

What is your favorite class and why?

My favorite class is Chemistry because you get to discover all these cool things and go in depth when you get into the lab. My sister is also a chemical engineer major so I want to follow in her footsteps in some way.

What is a unique experience you’ve had at Walker’s that you didn’t think you’d be involved in when arriving at Walker’s?

I am a part of African Drumming and BSU (the Black Student Union). I never thought I’d join either of these clubs/affinity groups when I first came to Walker’s.

What is your favorite part of your typical day at Walker’s? What do you look forward to every day?

Lunch because I get to spend time with the people in the community, and I get to laugh while hanging out with my friends in the middle of the day.

What advice would you give to an incoming Walker’s student?

Join clubs. You may not think you’d like them, but trust me, join as many as you can. It helps build friendships that’ll last a long time.

What do you think is the biggest benefit of attending school at Walker’s?

You can never be heavily judged in what you like and want to do.

How do you feel you have grown (academically, emotionally, mentally) since your first day at Walker’s?

I have made such great friendships that I’d never thought I’d make when I first came to Walker’s.

How do you think Walker’s has prepared you for your future?

To learn independence and to manage my time well.

What is your favorite thing to do in your free time?

Hanging out with family and friends.
