Cavel Nelson, Fremont High School, Class of 2025
Cavel will be attending the University of California, Los Angeles, double majoring in Psychology and Sociology
"These past four years have been filled with so many new and exciting experiences, evolving me into a lifelong learner. I'll miss the brunch time debriefs at "the grass" on random topics with my friends, but I will always cherish those memories while looking forward to many laughs in our next chapter. My advice for incoming students is to seize your opportunities. Do not be scared to be ambitious and bold, and remember to build a support system that uplifts you on your journey throughout high school. Make lasting memories because time goes by fast, and before you realize, you will be crossing that finish line with so much purpose."

Edwin Fuentes, Homestead High School, Class of 2025
Edwin will be attending De Anza College, majoring in Education
"If you feel nervous or feel like you are behind or struggling don’t worry because a lot of your other classmates are going through the same thing. One thing I wish I knew when I first came in as a freshman, is that we all work at our own pace, we all do things our own way, there isn’t a “correct way” or something that’s set in stone. What made my high school years truly special were the friendships I built through football and the meaningful connections I formed with students, staff, and teachers. AVID was a life-changing part of my journey, helping me grow both academically and personally—from a 2.0 GPA to earning prestigious awards."

Maya Gallo, Monta Vista High School, Class of 2025
Maya will be attending San Jose State University, majoring in Kinesiology
"For me, high school was more than just academics-it was a transformative journey of personal growth, lifelong friendships, and invaluable mentorships. Each of my friends brought something unique into my life-some were fiery and ambitious, always pushing me to be the best version of myself, while others created a calm and much needed balance, which taught me the importance of enjoying the very few moments we have in high school. These friends became a source of motivation, laughter, and unwavering support, making every challenge easier to overcome and every accomplishment more meaningful."

Amine Ali Chaouche, Lynbrook High School, Class of 2025
Amine will be attending Boston University, majoring in Biomedical Engineering
"The next four years may seem like they’re long, but trust me, they go by so quickly. Since we can only go through high school one time, cherish the time you have here and make the most out of every moment. My biggest piece of advice to freshmen is this: don’t be afraid to try everything and embrace meeting many new people. Some of my favorite memories come from exploring opportunities–dancing in Boys Dance at Homecoming, joining clubs like the French Honor Society, and attending various school events. Beyond the activities, what made my high school years truly special were my amazing friends, staff, and teachers who supported me every step of the way. Madame Louie, whom I’ve had for three years, has been especially influential through her passion for French, inspiring me to grow both academically and personally."

Annabel Liu, Cupertino High School, Class of 2025
Annabel will be attending the University of California, Berkeley, majoring in Statistics and Data Science
"Without a doubt, what truly sets Cupertino apart and makes it extraordinary is not just its facilities or programs, but the people who compose its heart and soul. There is an unwavering energy here—a shared drive to grow, excel, and uplift one another. I feel incredibly lucky to be surrounded by such a driven and exceptionally talented community, from my peers to the teachers and administrators who guide us. As I continue my journey, I look forward to carrying the invaluable lessons I’ve learned with me. Cupertino’s unique mentality: "work hard to play hard" perfectly strikes the balance between pursuing excellence and enjoying the journey. It’s a reminder that success isn’t just about the destination, but also about taking the time to appreciate the path we take to get there."

Stephanie Blanco, Educational Options, Class of 2025
Stephanie will be attending Foothill Community College, majoring in Psychology
"Don’t be afraid to speak up for yourself, don’t be afraid to take a day to take care of yourself, don’t be afraid to change things if they aren’t working, and always check in with yourself at the end of every day. I transferred to Fremont my Junior year after struggling at the school I was attending. I was in such a bad place that I had convinced myself nothing would help me get out of it. When I came to Fremont, I quickly realized the regular classroom environment wasn’t for me and I was convinced that I wouldn’t be able to find anything to help. I had many meetings with the office staff, and when they mentioned Educational Options I immediately felt a sense of relief. I came to EdOps and I was amazed at how small and connected it felt. I was immediately welcomed and a weight was lifted off my shoulders. It felt like a place where I could be myself and be vulnerable."
