Who I am
Hi, my name is Quinn Haughey. I live in Durango, CO. I am a Senior at Animas High School. I have lived in Durango for about 3 and a half years now. Since moving here in the summer of 2011, I have loved every minute of it. I moved here from Georgetown, Texas. When I was a little kid I would visit my dad’s friend, who lived in Santa Fe, NM, and would always ask when we were going to move there. Then we visited Durango, CO. and I asked when we were going to move there. Little did I know I would actually end up here! Some of my interests are mountain biking, long boarding, lacrosse, and soccer; and in the winter, snowboarding, sledding, and, of course, playing in the snow.
Why I Chose Animas
I chose animas because I didn't want to be just another number. I wanted to stand out and make a difference in my school and my community. I grew up in the Montessori style of learning and project-based learning was the best fit for me. I have enjoyed my time at Animas High School and I think that my high school education has been better because of my choice to go here.
