Job Ang is a sixteen-year old homeschooler who hails from San Clemente, California. In his school time, he takes chemistry, FST, and theology with The Potter’s School. He prides himself on being a die-hard Angels fan. Professing to be one of the biggest fans you’ll ever meet, he can just about recite all the Angels player’s stats. The Los Angeles Lakers, USC Trojans, Arizona Cardinals, and New Orleans Saints are his other favorite teams in their respective sports. When it comes to food, Job will rarely pass anything up. Pasta and Japanese food are the dominant choices on his menu, and rarely will you see him and a full plate have anything to do with each other. You’ll only find empty plates, unless he has a cold or is in a state of depression (both rare instances). His favorite movie line, and one of his dear inspirations, comes from Gandalf in the Lord of the Rings when he says, “All you have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to you.” His love for Lord of the Rings is staggering to say the least. Otherwise, Job also loves to rock out to Switchfoot and Relient K.

 

 

Caroline Forsythe is fifteen and a sophomore in high school. This year, her first with The Potter’s School, she is taking Propositional Logic. Caroline has far too many interests for her own good, including, but not limited to, politics, philosophy, Western civilization, foreign languages, Irish dancing, literature, particularly modern British literature, sports, physics, and music. Her answers to “What do you want to be when you grow up?” include Nobel Prize winner, Pulitzer Prize winning author, New York Times Bestseller author, concert pianist, and nationally-renowned professor. Currently though, she is only ambitious. Caroline is excited to be a sportswriter for The Cracked Pot because writing has always been her major obsession. As far as sports go, Caroline is interested in running, biking, swimming, soccer, rugby, football, rock-climbing, sailing, canoeing, and kayaking. Her current goals include running a marathon or two before her high school graduation, learning how to surf, and competing in as many cross-country races and triathlons as possible.

Katie Olson has taken classes with The Potter’s School for four years, primarily enrolling in literature courses with Dr. Bridwell. Despite this heavy English load Katie finds time to enjoy math and science and aspires to become a biochemist. In the meanwhile she spends her free time playing tennis and various musical instruments. Katie began playing tennis a year ago after quitting gymnastics, and she already can not get enough of tennis. By contrast, she has played musical instruments for a much longer time: the guitar for eight years, the piano for four years, and the violin for one year. For eight years Katie has sung in the Gainesville Youth Chorus, where she has become one of the student leaders. In the minimal free time Katie has after her schoolwork and activities, she loves to read books. She particularly enjoys character-based books, as evidenced by her favorite author, Louisa May Alcott. Finally, Katie attends the church which her father pastors and helps with the weekly setup and music.
