“Laurel Springs was one of the best decisions I made in terms of education — giving me the opportunity to challenge myself through AP courses while also having the flexibility to travel and focus on tennis without worrying about absences or missing assignments. I also strengthened my time management skills and learned how to successfully handle adversity. All this said, I still had tremendous support and was able to reach out to my teachers for additional help or resources when needed. They helped me recognize and believe that not everything has to be done on my own.”
