Ben Cuomo
High School: Seton Hall Prep
 
If you could choose a superpower what would it be?
If I could choose any superpower I would choose either super strength or telekinesis. If I had super strength, I could be the best at nearly any sport that requires strength like lacrosse, football, and basketball. If I had super strength, I would be able to help other people as well. With my strength I could do things like lift cars like in the movies if there is a problem, or maybe just help move things that others can’t. I can also use my super strength for not-so-good things as well. For example, if I punched or stomped on the ground, I would cause an earthquake. If I were to push on a wall, I could collapse and destroy the whole building.
 
What is your favorite SRLA memory?
My favorite SRLA memory was when we were in Kindergarten drawing in coloring books, and doing color to numbers, and making buildings with blocks during free time with Mrs. Kepler. One time I went to the bathroom, and when I got back I knocked on the door to get into the classroom. Of course since we were all very little, and all wanted to open the door, Yeouki dropped everything he had in his hands which were: pencils, crayons, a caddie, and paint. Since then, we all remember, "Ben knocked the door, caddie went kaboom!”
 
What do you hope you will be doing the Monday after graduation?
I hope I’ll be outside having fun with friends playing wiffleball, lacrosse, or basketball, and looking forward to the pool, tournaments, and camps we will have together in the future. I also look forward to sleeping in and not having to worry about tests or assignments for awhile, being able to focus on myself, and having fun.
