I'm Simon Dinkin and I'm excited to be back for my 8th summer at North Star. I'm finishing up my junior year at Torey Pines HS in San Diego, CA. Recently I have been busy with ACT and finals. I also took my AP tests in May. At school I enjoy my English and U.S history course. I also created a club this year called future entrepreneurs. In the club we talk about marketing and business strategies, and once a month an employee from a major business comes and talks to us about their company.
As the summer approaches I have been spending more time at the beach playing volleyball, and bodysurfing. As for soccer, our High School team finished as the number 1 seed in San Diego despite unfortunately losing in the finals of playoffs. My club soccer season just ended with a loss in the round of 32 in National Cup.I look forward to heading up to Wisconsin and having another great summer at North Star!
