Student Spotlight: Kelsey E.

Branson School Online is home to amazing students who are involved in a variety of exciting activities. 

Student Spotlight for November: Kelsey E. 

Last year Kelsey retired from quarter midgets as track champion in her division. This year she was able to start racing with the adults and runs in the Dwarf class at both Honor Speedway in Pueblo and El Paso Raceway in Calhan. She took home numerous second place finishes and continues to learn both the new car and the tracks. Next year we have plans to travel the country to attend a few national events. Racing is a great family sport and teaches the kids numerous life lessons. Her car is a 1936 Ford Sedan powered by a 1000cc Yamaha motorcycle.

Keep up the awesome work Kelsey!  We are so proud of you!
