WITN's BEST OF THE BEST 2024 - WCECHS - Rachel Price attends Washington County Early College High School as a senior and is currently dual-enrolled at Beaufort County Community College. Currently, she lives with my parents and brother, while her two older sisters attends college at ECU. Rachel spends most of her time reading, pressing flowers, or walking with her cat Jasmine. Jasmine is a nine-year-old calico cat with no teeth, but she is still pretty active. When she graduates, she plans to attend UNC-Chapel Hill or NC State to receive a degree in Environmental Science. She has always loved being outdoors and staying active, so she hopes the job she will get in the future will allow her to do both.
