BVN News : Rachel Anderson-Staff Writer

Rachel Anderson –– staff writer

New this year to the newspaper as a staff writer is sophomore Rachel Anderson. She finds a lot of joy in going to the lake and the Broadmoore in Colorado Springs, which are some of her family’s annual summer traditions.
When she wasn’t going to these places, her time in the summer was mainly devoted to her training for being a cheerleader this school year. For Anderson, cheer is a big sport and is really important in her high school career. She loves to dance and perform and she is ready for taking on the challenge of improving her tumbling skills.
The rest of her time over the summer was spent at Stateline Animal Hospital, where she works and volunteers by walking dogs and fostering kittens in hopes of getting experience as a veterinarian, which she aspires to become in the future. Before she starts to look into a real career, however, she has to finish high school, where she is currently a straight A student and just wants to make the best of it.
“I just want to live a great high school experience,” Anderson said.
