Our Senior spotlight this month features Emma-Dixie Dietrich.
Dietrich is involved in various school clubs, including FBLA, NHS, FCA, Yearbook, Soccer and Golf. She is also the Communications Officer for DECA. In this role, she is responsible for leading communications between her sponsor, Stephen McClain, and her other officers.
Dietrich is also a member of the varsity hockey team for Holt High School while simultaneously competing with the Wright City girls' golf team.
Dietrich enjoys playing hockey and mentioned, “If my college of choice had a girls' hockey team, I would love to be a part of it.”
Dietrich plans to attend Missouri State University, located in Springfield, Missouri. Dietrich is choosing to attend here so she is close to family, and the school has a great program for her preferred major. While attending Missouri State, she wants to pick up photography as a hobby.
"I've seen a lot of photographers' artwork and I've always liked taking pictures, so I figured why not start my hobby in college when I'll have free time,” said Dietrich.
Dietrich wants to pursue a career in Marketing and aspires to be a Marketing Educator.
“Growing up I watched my Aunt impact so many different lives and I always wanted to give back and teach children like how I was taught,” Dietrich explained.
In college she will pursue a major in career and technical education and will begin her teaching career from that point on.
