The Pride of Perham 2016 | 23
AUSTIN JAMES VAN YSSELDYK PARENTS: Kenneth Van Ysseldyk and Kelly Westerveld FUTURE PLANS: Study Mechatronics at Alexandria Technical and Community College. MOST MEMORABLE TIME AT PHS: The 2016 Robotic Competition in Duluth.
JENNA WEGSCHEID PARENTS: Stephen and Marjorie Wegscheid FUTURE PLANS: I plan on graduating with a Biochemistry Master’s or Doctorate. After receiving my degree, I would then become a research scientist and continue to volunteer regularly to make a positive impact both locally and globally. MOST MEMORABLE TIME AT PHS: My favorite memory would have to be roasting marshmallows over Bunsen burners in Science Research.
AMANDA MARIE WINKELS PARENTS: Roger and Josie Winkels FUTURE PLANS: My future plans consist of going to Bemidji State University for college. I don’t know what my major is just yet but I’m sure I will have it all figured out within the next year or two. Although I do know I’m minoring in Studio Arts. MOST MEMORABLE TIME AT PHS: My most memorable moment here was when my 3rd hour Functions and Algebraic Patterns class convinced Mr. Rice, our teacher, to do the worm in the classroom my junior year.
ASHLEY ZITZOW PARENTS: Kent and Ann Zitzow FUTURE PLANS: Go to the University of Minnesota in the Twin Cities and major in Genetics, Cell Biology and Development. MOST MEMORABLE TIME AT PHS: Opening the gifts for Senior Secret Santa the day before we went away for break.
24 | The Pride of Perham 2016
ELLA VON RUDEN PARENTS: John and Sue Von Ruden FUTURE PLANS: Attend Minnesota State University Moorhead, for Elementary Education. Hoping to teach in the area when done with school. MOST MEMORABLE TIME AT PHS: Senior year of volleyball.
AARON WILSCHEWSKI PARENTS: Tim and Brenda Wilschewski FUTURE PLANS: Attend college and then become an electrical lineman for Otter Tail Power and then hopefully get married or something. MOST MEMORABLE TIME AT PHS: Friday nights in the Fall. Playing football under the lights with my brothers.
MOLLY WOOTEN PARENTS: Kristine Siegel and Billie Wooten FUTURE PLANS: My future plans are to honestly go with the flow. I’m 19 years old with a whole lot of life to live. I’m going day by day, and I’ll see where life takes me. MOST MEMORABLE TIME AT PHS: My most memorable time at PHS was having so much support from so many people, not only from my favorite staff members, but from friends and family, too. :)
ZOIE ZITZOW PARENTS: Byron and Connie Zitzow FUTURE PLANS: Still, undecided but I am attending MState in the fall for a Liberal Arts Degree. MOST MEMORABLE TIME AT PHS: Too many to pick just one.
