At any point in the fall, while driving throughout the campus of The Oakridge School, one might encounter runners. One of the most frequent runners is Senior Sarah Schoening. Sarah entered Oakridge in the third grade. She embodies the three As of Academics, Athletics, and Arts. Attending classes and perfecting homework consumes a lot of time for a typical student. Sarah loves to arrange some time in her life for her favorite hobby, art. But she has also learned to love running. Sarah, “loves to run because it is something I have used to bond with my Dad. It helps me stay healthy and fit.”
While at Oakridge, Sarah has participated in cross-country, basketball, and track. Sarah believes basketball “has helped teach me to be a team player.” She has also learned that working hard is essential to reaching her goals. Sarah’s favorite coach has been Coach Davis. He has been instrumental in inspiring Sarah to run, while teaching her to never give up on a task. Sarah plans to complete college on her way to work in medical research. Oakridge is proud of Sarah Schoening.
