Luca Kanegis
I have been attending Cushman for seven years. I have met many great friends and teachers throughout my time here. Building productive relationships with my teachers and receiving personalized instruction have pushed me to excel academically. I know I will miss my friends the most when I venture to college to pursue my dreams. My favorite Cushman memory was the Peru trip in 9th grade. I want to be remembered as the student who fought for social justice. Maggie de la Peña Cushman School HS English Teacher/Student Government
About Luca Kanegis
SAM Project
For my SAM project, I have worked on mitigating Police Brutality for the past three years. I have produced a couple of inspirational videos regarding this topic. Also, this past year, I have contacted several individual police municipalities across Miami-Dade County asking if their officers are equipped with body cameras and if they teach their officers de-escalation techniques.
