1. Catherine Lawrence

What university/college are you attending in the fall?
Texas A&M University

What do you plan to major in, and what are your career plans?
Biomedical engineering

What teacher impacted you the most and how/why?
The teacher that impacted me the most was David Pike, my calculus teacher. He made such a complex subject really interesting and engaging and provided a very enjoyable learning environment for all his students.

What are your favorite memories of school?
My favorite memories of school revolve around all the friends that I have made during my time here. Whether it be class hours, passing periods, or even lunch, spending time with my friends and getting to meet new people have contributed to my favorite moments here.

In the years to come, how do you hope history remembers the Class of 2024?
I hope they remember us as genuine individuals with a desire to help those around us.

2. Harsh Singh 

What university/college are you attending in the fall?
Stanford University

What do you plan to major in, and what are your career plans?
Computer science and entrepreneurship/software engineering. 

What teacher impacted you the most and how/why?
Lauran Popp, AP English III. Thoughtful, passionate, selfless, and bold. These adjectives describe Ms. Popp, but they do not define her. From pouring hours of her time into reading our sometimes-illegible essays to instructing us on the dangers of often-false analogy within political rhetoric, Ms. Popp has not only taught us how to be better writers, but better people, too. She is an eternally open line of support (no matter how trivial the dilemma), my philosophical role model, and equipped with both intense intellectualism and heart. I hope that I'll be able to one day live up to the standard of empathy, wisdom, and dedication that Ms. Popp embodies every day.

What are your favorite memories of school?
The “tssss-CRACK-fizzle” of opening an Apple-Pear Celsius (Guava-Kiwi’s good, too) during first-period Calculus; Leafing through the well-worn pages of my English teacher’s Sedaris novel; Jamba Thursdays on the sizzling-hot concrete of our band lot; Hysterically laughing with friends after AP Chem labs with catastrophically-high error rates; walks through the bustling Marcus hallways, the bittersweet thought that I'll only be here for a bit longer echoing in my head.

In the years to come, how do you hope history remembers the Class of 2024?
Fondly.

3. Rishi Chapati

What university/college are you attending in the fall?
University of Texas at Austin

What do you plan to major in, and what are your career plans?
Computer Science, I hope to either work in FAANG or work as a researcher in a lab.

What teacher impacted you the most and how/why?
David Pike. He was my AP Calc, Math UIL, and AcDec teacher. He’s extremely passionate about everything he teaches and always finds a way to make his classes so much fun.

What are your favorite memories of school?
All of the Academic Decathlon trips that I was able to compete at were filled with moments that I’m sure will be remembered for the rest of my life.

In the years to come, how do you hope history remembers the Class of 2024?
I hope they’ll remember us for our resilience in getting through the pandemic in our freshmen year.

4. Derrick Seele

What university/college are you attending in the fall?
Texas A&M University

What do you plan to major in, and what are your career plans?
I plan to major in engineering and work as an engineer after obtaining my bachelor’s degree.

What teacher impacted you the most and how/why?
Mr. David Pike. He teaches AP Calculus, Academic Decathlon, and UIL Math. Mr. Pike has encouraged and influenced me since my sophomore year of high school. He puts in tons of time and effort to further the success of his students and has been a great teacher, mentor, and friend to me.

What are your favorite memories of school?
I have made so many friends and have lots of great memories with the Marcus Band. We have lots of shared traditions and always have fun hanging out during summer band camp, football games, and competitions. Marcus Band is great because it exposed me to a group of students that I otherwise may not have met while also developing me into a better individual and leader.

5. Ryan Lovejoy

What university/college are you attending in the fall?
Texas A&M University at College Station

What do you plan to major in, and what are your career plans?
I plan to major in mechanical engineering. As for career plans, I have always been interested in the inner workings of machinery and other objects, so I am excited to work as an engineer in the future.

What teacher impacted you the most and how/why?
The teacher that impacted me the most was Nathan Ceballos who taught AP World History. He was a teacher that was always excited to be at school and loved his job. He also made the subjects interesting and engaging, while still allowing us to grasp the concept. Although I tend to enjoy logic-based classes more than English and history classes, Mr. Ceb's class was an exception. He is definitely my favorite teacher, and I still love to stop by his classroom and talk with him.

What are your favorite memories of school?
My favorite memories of school are of the football games and my favorite classes. The football games are always super fun, and being in the marching band made the experience even better. As for my favorite classes, I always loved my math and science classes, but I also often enjoyed my history and english classes simply due to the teachers.

In the years to come, how do you hope history remembers the Class of 2024?
I hope that history remembers the Class of 2024 as the class that pulled through. Our freshman year, which normally sets the tone for the entirety of high school, was pretty strange due to the impact of COVID-19. However, our class kept persevering, and even with the setback right from the beginning, we still finished the race and are continuing down our various paths.

6. Elin Cho

What university/college are you attending in the fall?
New York University

What teacher impacted you the most and how/why?
David Pike, my AP calculus teacher, made the class enjoyable and engaging despite it being a difficult subject. He's an amazing mentor, creates the best learning environment, and supports his students academically and so much more.

What are your favorite memories of school?
From simply having lunch with friends to struggling all together in a class to enjoying the fun senior activities, my favorite memories of Marcus are created by the amazing people around me.

In the years to come, how do you hope history remembers the Class of 2024?
I hope history will remember us as hard-workers, leaders, and innovators. As we go on our own paths, I hope that we can use our voice and talent to leave a mark on the world.

7. Iliana Gray

What university/college are you attending in the fall?
University of Texas at Austin

What do you plan to major in, and what are your career plans?
Mechanical Engineering, I plan to work in nuclear engineering or other industrial careers.

What teacher impacted you the most and how/why?
Mr. David Pike who is my AP Calculus AB and BC teacher has impacted me the most. His personality is very funny and lighthearted, and this makes learning difficult subjects more fun. He’s also a very effective and motivated teacher who always encourages you after making a mistake and celebrates your wins. I’m glad I had such a great teacher for Calculus, and that I now have a strong math foundation for my future engineering classes, thanks to Mr. Pike.

What are your favorite memories of school?
My favorite memories of school have to be seeing friends in between classes and attending fun school events like football games. Focusing on the exciting aspects of school made me more motivated to do better in my classes. I really enjoyed meeting new people and finding friends in my classes, as well as getting to know my teachers.

In the years to come, how do you hope history remembers the Class of 2024?
In the future, I hope the Class of 2024 is remembered as a group of individuals who not only helped improve Marcus, but also created strong relationships and connections that last years after graduation. It’s my hope that the Class of 2024 is thought of as a genuine, hardworking group that will use the vast knowledge and experiences they learned at Marcus to be successful in all future endeavors.

8. Sydney Mayes

What university/college are you attending in the fall?
Clemson University

What do you plan to major in, and what are your career plans?
I will be majoring in Studio Art with a minor in Digital Production Arts. I plan to work in animation, specifically story development.

What teacher impacted you the most and how/why?
The teacher who impacted me most was Tracy Jennings in AP Human Geography freshman year. It was my first AP class, and Ms. Jennings challenged us and built up my confidence for future AP classes. She presented the material in an interesting way and encouraged me to see the world from a new perspective. She helped me realize I was capable of more than I thought I could achieve.

What are your favorite memories of school?
My favorite memories of school are with the cross country team. I loved getting to spend time with all of the girls, whether just at practice or on travel trips. We always had so much fun and I will always value those friendships.

In the years to come, how do you hope history remembers the Class of 2024?
I hope that the Class of 2024 is remembered for being diligent and determined. We have worked hard to be in a position of going off to new experiences and opportunities. Throughout our time in school, we have learned the importance of adapting to new situations and the value of effort and perseverance in all that we do. I believe we will carry these traits into our future experiences.

9. Jacqueline Stevenson

What university/college are you attending in the fall?
University of Texas at Austin

What do you plan to major in, and what are your career plans?
I’ll be studying business at McCombs and exploring different options! I ultimately plan to either go straight into the workforce or attend a graduate law or MBA program.    

What teacher impacted you the most and how/why?
Ms. Popp (AP English III/PSAT Team) impacted me the most; not only did I undergo significant academic development while in her class, becoming a much better writer and test taker, but I became much more interested in rhetoric and debate due to the passion that always shone through her teaching. Her class expanded the way that I perceive problems + approach discussions and the genuineness with which she taught made her class enjoyable and relatable.    

What are your favorite memories of school?
Some of my favorite memories include meeting people that I can now call my best friends, taking courses that I genuinely found interesting, racing at swim meets/playing at water polo games, and having amazing teachers that shaped my academic journey. A few of my favorite classes were AP English III and IV, APES, AP Gov, AP Calc AB+BC, and APUSH!    

In the years to come, how do you hope history remembers the Class of 2024?
I’ve witnessed many of my classmates’ talent firsthand and I know that they have the potential to do great things, but each also has unique qualities that goes beyond who is considered the “smartest” or “most talented”. So, I hope that we’ll be remembered not solely for our achievements—but for our character.
