Ethan Saunders is celebrating an exciting milestone as he prepares to take the next step in his academic journey by attending a four-year university. Ethan plans to pursue a degree in Exercise Science at Liberty University, with the goal of becoming a physical therapist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ethan has been accepted to six colleges and universities, an impressive accomplishment that reflects his dedication and hard work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During his time at Clover Garden School, Ethan has been actively involved in soccer, baseball, and basketball for four years, as well as band during his freshman and sophomore years. He has also participated in DREAM Team, Jr. Civitan, the Mentorship Program, and Beta Club, showing his commitment to leadership, service, and school involvement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of Ethan\u2019s favorite memories at CGS is going undefeated in conference soccer and earning back-to-back Goalie of the Year honors, a testament to his determination and teamwork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ethan\u2019s advice to younger students:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDo your work on time, so you are not rushing and getting it done last minute.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
