HELLO, I'M
OLIVER SIDES
Enthusiastic and curious middle school student, passionate for mathematics & science and a desire to learn.
About Me
I am a social teen with a wide variety of interests which enables me to have something in common with virtually everyone, other students, and faculty alike at Norwood.
​
My firendly personality extends beyond the boundaries of school, whether on the golf course, basketball court, baseball diamond or soccer pitch, I easily connect with older and younger children as well as adults.
I have been told that I am quick-witted and I do enjoy the ability to make anyone laugh and enjoy the company of others who like to laugh.
I am a leader in band and a top, multi-sport athlete. My interests include golf, fishing, basketball, stock market/day trading, sports cars, travel, technology and music.
