“Emily Rohrbacher has been a student at my barn for the past 7 years. Emily is by far the hardest working student I have in my program, both on and off the horse. Emily is an avid competitor in the sport of show jumping and has excelled tremendously over the past few years. She is devoted and dedicated to the sport, and has always impressed me in her level of maturity and ability to succeed in a challenging environment that requires talent, time and tireless devotion.
Above all, Emily exhibits a level of professionalism, enthusiasm and exemplary commitment that makes her a pleasure to be with on a daily basis. Off the horse, Emily has been a working student at my barn for the past 2 years. Emily shows up with a smile every single day and goes above and beyond to help make things run smoothly at the barn. We are so grateful to have Emily as part of our team and she would be an incredible asset to any program.”
~ Shoshana Altschuler, Head Trainer of Owl Ridge Farm
“I’ve known Emily since she was just jumping crossrails. She has made the most of every opportunity, never backing down from a challenge or passing up the chance to learn something new. Her eagerness to improve has served her well and she’s now competitively jumping 1.15m courses and performing advanced flatwork. Emily is a hardworking, talented young rider who would be an asset to any team.”
~ Abby Johnston, Assistant Trainer at Owl Ridge Farm
“Emily contributes thoughtfully in both whole-class discussions and small-group activities, offering ideas that show genuine engagement with the subject. She is willing to take risks with her answers and is not afraid to think aloud or explore a concept further.”
– Karen Bonthrone, Tower Hill School Physics teacher
“I enjoyed teaching Emily this year, and she is one of the most capable students I have taught in twenty-plus years. She is diligent, thoughtful, and highly organized. I bring this up because the character traits I recognize in Emily are what teachers dream of in a history student. Emily is detail-oriented, is comfortable having nuanced conversations, and brings a sense of positivity and humor, which are essential to history discussions.”
– Matthew Jackson, Tower Hill School History teacher
