1. Please list your family members.
Parents Roy, Leslie and siblings Dustin Greve, Makayla Anderson.
2. How does it feel to be a senior?
Being a senior feels great! But after Christmas break you wish you could go back to freshman year and do it all over again. The 4 years your in high school you want it to go by slow so you can enjoy it! Being a senior is a great thing so you can see where you go in the future after you graduate! Enjoy your high school days. Especially your senior year.
3. What have been your favorite classes throughout school?
My favorite classes throughout high school would have to be any science class with Mrs. Penke. They are enjoyable and she is a fun teacher to have. You learn a lot just by listening because she isn’t one of the boring teachers. I love her classes because i love learning about the body, your bones and everything that can happen to your body that I had no clue could even happen. She’s a great teacher to have at Oakland-Craig!
4. What activities do you participate in school?
The activities I participate in school are volleyball (4 years) Wrestling student manager (4 years) Track (1 year) and outside of school for sports I do Gymnastics (12 years)
5. Whom, among all of your teachers through the years, have been your biggest influencers? What did you learn from them that has made you who you are?
I really can’t name any teacher that has influenced me the most, because every teacher here at Oakland-Craig has pushed me and pushed me to do my best in high school to make it far in life after i graduate! So, every teacher has influenced me a lot! I’ve learned to be myself, wherever and whoever I’m with. Don’t try to be any one you aren’t and live your life to the fullest!
6. How has your family helped and influenced you in your life?
My mom Leslie Greve, my sister Makayla Anderson and my cousin Cheri Johansen have influenced me a ton in my life. Pushing and pushing me to get good grades , and have fun while I’m at it! If it weren’t for those 3 I don’t know where I’d be in high school! I’m passing all my classes because they help me so much and prepare me for everything that will come out me in my future! They are the best and I’m glad I have a family I count on!
7. What do you and your friends do for fun?
My friends and I do a lot of things. Well. All my friends are in college now, but I still see them! Trishtian McNeill is one of my best friends. We go basically everywhere with each other! We drive around, shop, go to movies, ride around on the four wheeler or on the dirt bikes and be a little bit of rebels at some points, or if we are both feeling lazy we just sit around the house, make bunch of pizzas and watch movies at her house or mine, because we both consider each other family!
8. What have been some of your favorite moments in school?
I have had so many favorite moments in school that they hard to name. But, it would be watching my friends Nick Arlt and Bryce Uhing wrestle at State and any other meet and wrestle their hearts out, or in volleyball when we broke our school record for winning 20 games.
9. What are your plans after you graduate from high school?
My plans after I graduate are going to Metropolitan Community College and get my gen-eds out of the way and transfer to College of Saint Mary’s and get my Occupational Therapist degree and go on from there!
10. How excited were you to be the queen of the winter dance? What was it like to be crowned?
Being crowned at the winter dance was such a great feeling! I almost started crying because I was filled with joy! No one from Craig has ever really been crowned at any dance beside Breanna McNeill! So it was a blessing! Being crowned with my best friend basically my brother Justin Smith was the best part of the night! We’ve been friends since pre-school and it was the best to be Queen with him! It was a great way to end my senior year that’s for sure! I’ll cherish this moment forever!
11. Once you graduate, what do you think you will miss the most about school?
When I graduate I’ll miss everything about Oakland-Craig. How small it is. My friends for sure and Cole Mitchell singing in the hallways! I’ll miss the teachers being so helpful and caring and wanting to help me, whenever I need help! I’ll miss helping the wrestling team and the volleyball team!
