“I was a foster kid when I came to Samueli Academy. I was quiet and ashamed of who I was. After I performed in a national History Day competition, I was like a new person. I was a flower blooming in the night.”

“Samueli Academy prepared me for the college level work. I’m majoring in astrophysics and have all A’s”
