Personal Statement

Hi, my name is Grace Kaspar and I am varsity field hockey player at Providence Day School (class of 2024) and Charlotte Ambush.  I am a two sport athlete  (field hockey and soccer) who discovered in middle school that what I really loved was playing field hockey! By being a forward and midfielder in field hockey after years as a center back in soccer, I have developed a strong ability to read the field.  Field hockey has taught me  how the strength of relationships with teammates can be the foundation for a better game. In school, I am very involved in several clubs that focus on helping children.  I am an Executive Board member of the Student Foundation Board that distributes funds to charities and school service clubs. I am also the President of the Special Olympics Club and Co-Leader of the summer literacy program Freedom School. My ultimate goal is to attend a college with a strong academic focus that will push me both as a student and a field hockey player.  I am looking forward to finding the right place where I can  grow academically, athletically and personally. Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile!
