SUBJECT: SENIOR - MISS KATIE

Hello everyone, my name is Katie.

I live in rural Western Kentucky with three siblings, two llamas, three horses, one squirrel, and various other animals. I'm in Tennessee so much that could be called a "Tuckassean". I attend a PCA church in Tennessee.

Music has always been a large interest for me. Currently I'm taking piano lessons--something that I really enjoy. But music isn't everything.

I can't keep my head out of books! I read almost everything. Some of my favorite authors are Lewis, Tolkien, Dickens, Austen, Twain, and Sienkiewicz, My parents always encouraged reading, and homeschooling gave me time for it (not to mention the blessing of not being perceived as "weird" and shunned for being "dorky".

I've been homeschooled K-12, and it's been pretty good. I am, however, very glad to be graduating. I love learning, but I can't wait to finish the online classes I'm taking this year with Memoria Press. They are:

Classical Rhetoric

Political Philosophy

Latin

For English, I am also learning writing under the direction of a writing mentor from Patrick Henry College.

Since I'm the oldest child, my parents are very excited about me graduating. I might be attending Covenant College in the fall, where I will take advantage of any "study abroad" programs. Some day, I would love to travel to Ireland.
