What if the biggest change in your life started the moment you walked into a new school? In this episode, ninth-grader Sayde Czerpak shares how she chose JCHS, navigated the nerves of starting fresh, and slowly discovered a community that felt like home. She talks about taking positive risks—from running for class rosh to giving a d’var Torah—and how each step helped her figure out who she wants to be. Along the way, Sayde shows how kindness, curiosity, and trying new things can completely reshape your confidence in high school.
