Thomas MacDonald
I am going to remember all the time I spent in the shop with Mr. Kirby. Most days I could be found working on fun and practical projects. My favorite of which was making my own woodstove for my cabin.
In high school Thomas participated in skiing for all four years. In track & field he holds the school records for the 400, 800, 1600. Thomas was also named the Region II male track athlete of the year.
Thomas is looking forward to having more time to do the things he loves and to have more freedom. More time for projects, flying, and fun. His advice to younger students is to get out there and do stuff. Get interested in something. Challenge yourself.
Thomas plans to attend the University of Alaska Fairbanks pursue a degree in engineering.
