Whenever I engage with enthusiasm, I find that I really love what I am doing. Even if I went in thinking that I wouldn't like it, being enthusiastic makes it more enjoyable.

At Crystal students are able to balance extracurriculars in and out of school with their academic work.
Students are able to do different activities in different fields (ex: athletics, arts, academics, etc.).
There is balance within academics- students are able to choose what classes they want to take, their challenge level, course load, etc.
Students are also able to balance personal life/relationships-- i.e. family time, time with friends.
At Crystal students are able to balance and pursue their interests in and out of their classes- they get to explore their passions.
Especially in these times, Crystal works hard to balance mental health and wellness of its students-especially with all the time on Zoom and scheduling changes.
