Ambreishia Lewis
By Savannah Sowell
How do students who attend private schools really feel about their strict stipulations? Ambreishia Lewis, Dallas sophomore said, “I went to a private school my whole life, from kindergarten through twelfth grade.”
Lewis attended an Episcopalian private school. “We broke the rules all the time, our senior year we ran that damn place.” When asked about the cost of tuition Ambreishia said it was “$10,000 a year” to attend her private school in her high school years.
For two years growing up Ambreishia had to balance her private school education with something many high school students do not. “I was a caretaker in my home because I lived with my grandparents," she said. Having to balance her studies with cooking and cleaning for her grandparents and younger brother helped instill valuable skills in Ambreishia that will be useful to her later in life.
She says that because of this she is still very close with her grandparents and refers to herself as a grandma. “I go to bed early, anything that happens after two a.m. is trouble," she said.
After graduating from her private school, Lewis enrolled at Stephen F. Austin
State University and is majoring in radio and telvision production. “When I first
came to Nacogdoches I was like what is this? This is crazy, there is only one street here,“ she said.
Since moving to Nacogdoches she has became fond of the small town life Nacogdoches has to offer. “My dream is to work for the Dallas Cowboys,” she said,so hopefully Ambreishia will be relocating back to her roots in Dallas after concluding her education at SFA.
