Thanksgiving Break

Hello everyone! Thanksgiving break just ended, and we're all excited to return to school for these short few weeks before Christmas break. Over the break, I spent time with my family and my brother came home from college too. We were all disappointed to see the Giants lose on Thanksgiving night, but we quickly got over it because we were having so much fun just being together and eating some amazing turkey (and chocolate cake!). Throughout the weekend, I tried to keep in mind everything that I am thankful for in my life. I am thankful for my loving supporting family, my hilarious friends, my good health and the health of my family, and everything I take for granted like having a home, enough food to eat, and even the ability to go to a school like Union Catholic. So although I enjoyed having time to relax, I'm relieved to be back in the swing of things at school! 25 days until Christmas!

My Life as a Student Ambassador

Hello, my name is Brian Milanes and I am a junior here at Union Catholic. I have attended the school since freshman year, and I've met some amazing teachers and friends. I'm excited to say that I will begin blogging as a junior ambassador, to give prospective students and their parents a chance to see what my personal experience is like at Union Catholic. I take all AP and Accelerated classes, and I am involved in Student Ambassadors, Big Brother/Big Sister Program, REACH, Academic Team, and National Honor Society. Juggling these activities with a lot of homework every night can get a little hectic, but never unmanageable. My goal in this blog is to keep you updated on what I am doing around the school and in the classroom, especially my Student Ambassador duties. I hope to also let you know when you can come see the school in person, and experience firsthand everything that the school has to offer.
