Student Success Story – Published Author
We are so proud of High School student, Lente, who published her debut novel last summer.
After four years of creativity, resilience, and determination, she brought her story to life – from writing and editing to designing her own cover and navigating self-publishing.
This is an extraordinary milestone at such a young age, and a wonderful example of the creativity and perseverance we celebrate at Marymount.
Well done, Lente!
