Logan McGill

My name is Logan McGill and I am a junior at Greenhill school. Swimming is my passion, but I also enjoy running and playing the piano. I have been swimming since I was in the second grade and I am planning on continuing it at the collegiate level. The summer before 8th grade I was diagnosed with scoliosis and was prescribed a back brace. Thankfully, the brace did not slow me down and made me stronger as a person. I enjoy sharing my story to anyone who would like to know and am so thankful I have the opportunity to stand up and speak in front of people about my journey with scoliosis.

In his spare time, Beckham develop an interest in science and engineering, specifically the work of Nikola Tesla and his work on developing the Tesla Coil. Beckham’s interests not only lie in the engineering behind the coil, but also its affect on society and possibilities for the future.

Lauren Stock

Lauren is a 13 year old 8th grader at Greenhill School who enjoys dance, softball and being involved in her synagogue. In 2010 Lauren started a program called High School Heroes where she speaks to high school seniors about the importance of registering to be a potential bone marrow donor – a topic near to her heart, as her mother was the recipient of a life-saving stem cell transplant from a marrow donor. Lauren has shared her tremendous story in a number of ISAS schools and is a great example of taking action and inspiring others to do the same anyway they can.
