Who wears Pritzker gear outside of school? It’s almost as if he loves showing off his Pritzker pride in and out of school. You might see him roaming the hallways once in awhile with his head held high. He always has a serious look. But in reality he is actually a playful and funny guy.
According to Jafet Alvarez, Allan Lagunas’ best friend, when ever he is around Lagunas all he has is fun. Alvarez recalls how he has always loved going to the movies with Lagunas because he always made the atmosphere feel fun.
Lagunas believes that his family members would describe him as a helpful person because he helps around with chores. He also mentioned that he especially helps out in the kitchen.
During his free time Lagunas enjoys reading and playing sports. After school he gets home and works out for up to two hours. In the summer, he runs at a parks with his family members. Lagunas also likes to run in the 606 during summer.
In the summer, he likes going to the beach and playing football with his friends. In the winter Lagunas goes to an indoor basketball court and plays basketball with Alvarez and other friends. Although Lagunas likes playing basketball his favorite sport is American Football.
Just like some high schoolers Lagunas just wants to get school over with. Lagunas’ states “What I’m excited about this school year is graduating and trying new stuff out.”
When it comes to long term goals Lagunas already knows what he wants in life after he graduates high school. Lagunas wants to go to Wilbur Wright College and finish school as soon as possible. His main goal is to become an electrician. Alvarez explains that Lagunas has already started his career as an electrician. “He even already has some equipment,” Alvarez states.
At this point you might think that all Lagunas wants to do is have fun, finish school, and achieving his dream job. If you are thinking that then you are wrong. Lagunas also wants to travel. When asked what was another one of his goals Lagunas responded that he wants to go to England.
When someone asks you: who wears Pritzker gear outside of school? You can now answer: Lagunas a senior at Pritzker College Prep wears Pritzker gear outside of school! Next time you see Lagunas whether it’s in the hallways, at Wright College, in England or even if you see him pursuing his dream as an electrician make sure to stop by and say hi. Remember that behind that serious face he hides the funny, helpful and moral guy that he truly is!
