Sydney Leardi is a sophomore at Seattle Prep and is eager to start her first year on the Panther staff! Starting dance at the age of four, she has most recently been a member of Prep’s Pulse Dance Team since freshman year. She also hopes to get a re-do of last year’s cut-short track season this spring. Sydney is super excited to be officially starting Prep’s Speech and Debate Club this year. She loves going back to New York for her family and the food! A New Jersey native, Sydney definitely has a slight bias to all things east coast :) She lives with her mom, dad, and brother, who is a freshman at Prep this year.
