Niles West High School Senior 'One Of The Most Mature Students'
NWHS 12th grader Enna is a "prolific musician, visual artist, photographer and a great human being," according to her orchestra director.

SKOKIE, IL — Star Students are found in classrooms, on concert and theater stages and at debate lecterns, and out in the community doing good things to make life better for all of us.
Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize Star Students, and we’re working to tell the stories of these outstanding kids to their neighbors.
This submission comes from Natalie Frakes, the orchestra director at Niles West High School. Frakes nominated Enna, a 112h grader from Skokie.
How do you know the star local student?
She is in my orchestra class.
Why do you believe the star local student should be recognized?
Enna is one of the most creative students I know. She is a prolific musician, visual artist, photographer, and a great human being. She excels in all her classes, yet keeps her demeanor pleasant and collaborative even under stress. She is one of the most mature students I have had in my career.
What's one thing you want everyone to know about the star local student?
Enna is a phenomenal violinist but also shines on the traditional Korean instrument - gayageum. She was featured as a soloist on April 25th at our Chamber Showcase.
Congratulations on your achievements, and all of our best wishes to you in the future, Enna!
