Recently inducted into the National Honors Society, Thae Su also has an interest in Finance and chairs the Finance Literacy Club on campus. In her own words:
“My KIS journey has been nothing short of wonderful so far. Over the past year, KIS has really changed my perspective of life. Here, opportunities are everywhere and I believe I am making the most of them. I’ve managed to score A and A+ grades across most of my subjects maintaining a good GPA. I’ve been actively involved in a lot of extracurricular activities such as the Financial Literacy club, Science National Honour Society, Vanam Diaries and more. This year, I initiated a TEDx talk at school. Through these activities, I’ve made many new friends from diverse backgrounds which enriches my Kodi experience. While this academic year will be much more demanding with deadlines for IAs and EEs, I can say that I am maintaining a good balance between academics, extracurriculars and life in general. Things are hard at home with the political instability however KIS has been one of the things that keeps me hopeful about life. Lastly, I just want to express my deepest gratitude for this scholarship that made all of this possible. None of this would have happened without your unwavering contribution. Studying at KIS has genuinely changed the way I see the world and my future.”
