HSB Connections - Graduates 2005

Alex(ander) Peter Jacobsson, Rockford, Michigan

Son of Marc & Deb Jacobsson

Except for kindergarten, I have been homeschooled my entire life. Now that I am graduating, I am strangely looking forward to college and attending classes where the teachers aren’t my parents. My “master plan” is to attend Aquinas College for four years and hopefully graduate with a major in English and a minor in Theatre. Although I dream of working on movies or Broadway, I also am considering teaching English/Literature or becoming a journalist. I haven’t made my mind up yet!

Some of the people that have made a great impact on my life are the teachers that I’ve meet during Jr. and Sr. High. These include Mrs. Danielle Olander, Mrs. Ruth Hansen, Mrs. Rebecca Maloley, and Mrs. Nancy Butler. Of course, the teachers I spent the most time with were my parents so they have to be the teachers that get my “Gold Star” Award. I’ll also let them visit my ocean-side mansion in Spain when I’m a multi-millionaire. I would like to thank Aquinas College and Best Buy for awarding me scholarships to help me further my education.
