Meet the Prefects

Giorgio Quartara

What was the most stressful part of the Prefect application process and why? 

The most stressful part of my prefect application was the letter. This is because I needed to express myself in the best way possible with a strict amount of lines, while also showing my ideas and opinions on what to improve in the school community. 

Why did you want to be a prefect? 

I have been in St. Paul`s since the beginning and the school has helped me throughout my whole life. I consider that being a prefect would be the best way possible to show how much I care about this school and its community and how I could give back to everything the school has done to me. 

What was the hardest question they asked you in your interview?

“If you had the power to change anything, what would you change in the world?” 

What is your favorite TV show? 

Game of Thrones. 

What do you want to study in the future and where? 

My goal is to study engineering at Northwestern University. 

Place you most want to visit: 

Tokyo.

What is one thing you want to change in school? 

I would change the swimming program. I would try to amplify the recognition it deserves.

Any advice for prospective prefects? 
​
Be yourself. Your own personality will take you forward. Be inclusive to others and always be open to new ideas.
