Carla Bogran

Carla Bográn, an 18 year-old student at E.I.S, has always been an outstanding person since she was a little girl. She used to say she wanted to be a preschool teacher when she grew up since she has always loved little kids. Instead of playing dolls all afternoon like most girls would do, Carla practiced ballet. Her interest in ballet came when she was six years old; she went to a summer camp of the Royal Academy of Dancing of London for two weeks in Long Beach, California in the summer of her 7th grade, and not to mention that she won a prize between 50 students of all over the world. She even took tests of people who came from London, and got the highest grade in Honors possible, 10/10 for three years straight, and the next two years she got 9/10. Ballet wasn’t the only thing she practiced, she also practiced tap, jazz, african, flamenco and she danced in point shoes for 4 year. She stopped practicing ballet when she was 16 years old.
Carla has been in EILL/EIS all her life. In EILL her grade point average was of 95%, and when she entered EIS her grade point average was from 88% to 90%. Carla has always been a responsible student. At school, she played soccer, that’s how she broke her arm in 5th grade; she also played volleyball until she was in 10th grade. Carla didn’t just play sports, she was also the godmother of her brothers’ baseball team, “I found a picture few days ago, I was wearing a crown and a scarf that entitled me as the godmother, I even got flowers in my hands,” Carla said when she told me about her experience. She has been a part of in school as well as out of school activities throughout her whole life.
Carla’s favorite holidays are Christmas and Halloween. She says Christmas is one of her favorite since she gets to eat amazing food her family makes for this holiday, and for Halloween she just likes to dress-up, “Call me immature, but I still love to dress-up,” she says. Carla has been a joyful and entertaining person all her life, she refers herself as “fun-sized,” since she is 1.50 meters tall since she was in 5th grade.
