Name and class: Savana Arroyo, Class of 2026 Favorite subject and/or teacher? My favorite subject is Math, and my favorite teachers are Mr. Carter, Mr. Hibell, and Mrs. Barro. Where are you from? Originally from New York, I moved to PA here halfway through 1st grade. How would you describe yourself? I describe myself as a very guarded and closed-off person, but as soon as I warm up to someone, I can be pretty nice. What’s your favorite part of being a student at Stroudsburg? The more creative dress downs like your favorite character because you know there’s gonna be someone with a bald cap on. Although it’s a shame we’re to the point where we have to fill out Google forms for stuff like that, and the fact that our individuality in the form of profile pictures were taken away.
