Kevin James Tracy is one of the five Class Senior Representatives in Chesterton High School. Over the past few years, he has earned a reputation as a defender of the laws and principals which have governed this great nation for over two centuries, a talented artist, proud Roman Catholic, and an all around fun guy to talk and hang around with who has a comment on almost everything.
Kevin Tracy was born on February 22, 1984 in Munster but spent the first three years of his life in Calumet City. He is also the eldest child in the immediate family. He attended a pre school near the old Chesterton High School for a couple of years then started elementary school at Bailey on 5th street. His best friend through the earlier years of elementary school was quite a contrast to Kevin, he failed kindergarten twice before moving. Kevin had already begun making new friends and the process never stopped. He attended Westchester Middle School and graduated in 1998 to go on to high school like much of the rest of the 2002 class.
This year, Kevin has been a part of the German and Chess clubs like last year. Though the Computer club has been stopped, Kevin still visits Mrs. Girkie and is the chief web master for the BPA. Kevin has been an extremely outward person in Student Action For the Environment. Though his Republican views may not always be welcome by the majority of Democrats and liberals in S.A.F.E., the other Republicans and nonpartisan members note his bipartisanship. He was also the web master of the S.A.F.E. web site at http://safe.webdare.com. He stopped work on it when the BPA, "a more Republican club,"* requested his help. Josh Michaels was left in charge of S.A.F.E.'s online operations. Being the most outspoken, Kevin is seen as the leader of the Republicans in S.A.F.E. and is often the target of many leftist attacks, which Kevin and his conservative friends manage to dodge every time.
After graduation, Kevin plans on leaving for Basic Training in the Air Force. His decision has been met with resistance from both friends and family, but Kevin is determined to serve his nation and make a career of it. To him, the Air Force has been both a calling and a sense of duty. On September 11th, the free world was awoken to the fact that our freedom was despised by others in the world and it has been under attack for years. Kevin then, like all other red blooded Americans saw his local recruiter within weeks.
College is still an option for Kevin and that will open doors for Kevin after his retirement from the Air Force. He hopes the door is one that leads to a life of politics, but that is for voters to decide decades in the future.
