Jeffrey Peterson

 
Here's Jeffrey! (6/2004) I started my kindergarten year at Expo (1991-2) and continued through 6th grade (1997-8). From there I went to Ramsey and then on to Central, where I am now graduating. At Central I took a lot of Science classes, so I can hopefully get a degree in Food Science or Marine Biology. I took really easy classes my first 2 years there and then my Junior and Senior years I took AP and IB courses. As a Junior at Central 3 of my friends and I started our own skateshop called Expression. We started out small and are now working our way up to shop decks and shoes. Now we own the store at the age of 18. I will continue at the shop as I go to the U of M. At the U of M I plan to take my generals then go into the Food Science or Marine Biology department. From there the future is wide open.

Expo taught me a lot of skills that I needed to make it in the real world. I can say Expo taught me, Follow your dreams and never give up on what you want. Stay focused on what you want and dont slack off. Live life to the fullest and never regret anything you do, because life will pass you by in a second. Thank you to the Ms. Linn who got me interested in science and took us on all the cool field trips, Mr. Hinkley who gave me the knowledge of computers, Ms. Adams who pushed me to work my best, and the rest of the teachers who got me this far. Thank you to Expo who taught me so much!
