The Winchendon School has a very busy daily schedule. I was always on my toes, trying to get prepared for classes, catching up with my assignments, participating in athletic I practices and completing college applications. When I be- came a senior, I found the work tiresome and demanding, however, I achieved more than I expected. - Seung Tal Kim, '03 I have spent three years at Winchendon, whichis the longest period of time I have spent anywhere except my homeland. At Winchendon, I have met so many people from so many different countries, and it is nice to have many friends of various nationalities. My friends and I learn from each other and we shared good times at school. If it weren't for Winchendon, I would , not have found out that I could be independent of my parents or that I could be a mature person. Winchendon is a place full of my best memories and I will never forget it. - Yung-Ting Tang, '03 I have been in the U.S. for almost five years, and my life has changed in many ways since I have come here. I had lived in Chicago and attended school there before I came to Winchendon. I still remember the first day I came here, all of the things at Winchendon came as a surprise to me. I had a lot of fun discovering many fresh and new things that I had not found in Chicago. There, I was a typical Korean girl who was shy in public and too passive to do any work. However, the decision to come to Winchendon has given me a totally new life. I now enjoy talking and being active in a lot of ways, full of confidence. - Ji-Hyun Park '03
