Ethel Walker provided the resources for me to grow into myself as a person and to not build a box around the polarities of 'artist', 'athlete', 'technical theatre enthusiast', etc. I continue to be grateful that my middle school and high school experiences could be shaped by such a supportive and dynamic environment with friendships that are still strong today! As always, GO DIALS!!!!
