Lititz Christian School

Emilie Nissley Senior

Emilie Nissley, the daughter of Leslie Nissley, is a senior at Lititz Christian School. She enjoys the opportunity to take classes that are both challenging and interesting to her, such as Physics, in her final year of high school. She enjoys Physics specifically because she says it pushes her academically, particularly because she wants to go into the field of aviation. She even claims her biggest accomplishment so far this year is acing a physics test! Successful in her academics, she is currently a member of Lititz Christian’s chapter of the National Honor Society. Emilie participated in volleyball her junior year, and she is currently an active member of World Vision, supporting a child in Bolivia. She is a member of Lancaster County Bible Church (LCBC) and leads a group of 5th grade girls in their journey as growing Christians. In her free time, Emilie enjoys reading, painting, drawing, and spending time with her two dogs, family, and friends. She is currently taking flight lessons and her long-term goal is to join the Air Force to become a pilot. She admires her dad a lot, even though he passed away when she was seven. He was an amazing supporter and always there for her when she needed him. She said that she could always rely on him; and he was a strong and determined person. The memory of him will always be with her, and it has truly inspired her to become more like him.
