  Alumni success Alumni www.mcgrawhighschool.com stories Sandra Roberts MHS Graduate class of 2007 With over 5 years of investment and advisory experience helping start-up businesses, Sandra is an Investment Advisor at a Wall Street Venture Capital organization. Born in the US, Sandra had forgone high school education for a low paying job at a fast food franchise. Two years after dropping out of high school, she realized that she needed to change her life dramatically. For her a constant stream of income was necessary, so she had to choose a institution that provided her the flexibility to work along with finishing her high school diploma. Sandra admits that McGraw High School was a ‘big awakening’ and it was here that she started to understand where her strengths and weaknesses lay. “MHS rounded out my skills and gave me a great deal of confidence. Suddenly I was part of a ‘pack’ of like-minded people who were now all in my global network.” “I look back on my decision to go to MHS and see how it started this long journey of being comfortable in the white spaces, building order into chaos, working with imperfect information and building relationships wherever I go. I was brought up to not be a quitter. I have always been a real fighter and have always lived by the mantra, ‘never give up; never accept no and never go away.’ 11

  Alumni success Alumni www.mcgrawhighschool.com stories Alex Heung MHS Graduate class of 2008 “MHS was a great insight into excellent teamwork and camaraderie and prepared me for many real-life situations I would encounter in my career.” It was the diversity of the participants that struck Alex when he arrived at MHS. “Their different backgrounds and cultures and the way they looked at problems from a different angle gave me a good perspective of the different views to a problem. It also provided me with a global network of contacts.” Alex was able to find employment in civil service when he completed his high school diploma and has remained there since he graduated in Public Administration. Now holding a senior post at a government ministry in Singapore, Alex was able to excel as a bright student due to the flexibility McGraw High School offered. “The MHS experience gave me the confidence to examine issues from a different perspective which helped me considerably when I was appointed to challenging development projects.” Alex’s experiences with MHS helped him get admitted into an Ivy League university on government sponsorship. “If it was not for the learnings at MHS, I would never have developed as successfully as I have today.” 12
