Nathan Pravda possesses a keen analytical mind, makes deep commitments to his activities, and has an innate tendency towards helpfulness and doing the right thing. Nathan’s academic record is truly exceptional: he has consistently made the high honor roll while taking the most demanding course loads possible, he has earned perfect scores on every Advanced Placement test he has taken to date, and he’s our school’s recipient of the prestigious Yale Book Award.
Nathan is one of the most active members of our thriving instrumental music program: Mr. Chisholm describes him as an initiative-taker who “is involved in so much of the music program it's hard to quantify.” He is a leader and founder of Natick High’s West Street Klezmer music group, and a valued member of our Jazz Ensemble.
Nathan has made meaningful contributions to his activities, from music, to Tae Kwon Do, to his leadership in the service-oriented youth group at his synagogue, and his years of commitment to the Boy Scouts, culminating in his Eagle Scout project this year of building outdoor seating for the town library.
