Marauders of the Week

Each week, members of the Belmont High School staff nominate seniors to be featured on our website, live feed on the Belmont School app, and for display on the school monitors. The students earn this spotlight for outstanding accomplishments ranging from citizenship to extracurricular activities to scholastics. We are excited for this opportunity to highlight a broad group of our amazing students at BHS!

Marauder of the Week: Ethan Djajadi

1. What is your favorite school subject?

I love Math and AP Chemistry right now! Thinking about various math problems until they're solved is really fun!!!

2. Most influential classes / teachers:

APUSH with Mrs. White taught me to like history, Dr Molk with AP Chemistry is teaching me to working with the structures of the world, and Mrs. Dashoff with AP Psychology is teaching me more about my own mind than any other class. (Shout-outs to old teachers Mr. Lefebvre with Physics and Gu Lao Shi with Chinese!!! You guys rock!!!)

3. What extracurriculars have been meaningful to you?

Record Robotics, the local community robotics team has given me hands-on experience with many technological challenges and with teamwork!!! Definitely consider joining if you love robotics!! Go 6731!!!

4. What are you most proud of doing or being part of, either at BHS or in the community?

I'm most proud of running a robotics class in association with Belmont Free Lessons! Teaching my passions to other people in Belmont's community has definitely been one of the best experiences of my high school, and I would highly recommend for you to consider the same!

5. What are you passionate about?

I love music! Each song has such a unique structure and is so fun to dissect to see what rhythms, chords, and melodies that give the song its essence! Some of my favorite songs at the moment are New Me - Yoasobi, Kokoronashi - Baelz Hakos, and FOCUS - Kira!

6. What words of wisdom would you like to leave for other BHS students?

Start figuring out your goals for high school, and especially what college you want to go to. Figure out what experiences you want to have in high school, what you want to lead, and what you want to do past high school early, so you can set your targets and forge your own path through high school! Give it your all! You got this!!!
