Elaina Brier will be a 2024 graduate of Winter High School and is the daughter of Amy Bullerwell. Her favorite activity to do with her family is to attend horse shows and rodeos. Her favorite childhood memory is when she got her very first pony, Susie.
While at WHS Elaina has been involved in 4-H for 3 years, Northwest Wisconsin Equine Club for 3 years, Junior Honor Society for 3 years, and National Honor Society for 3 years. She is a member of the Wisconsin Horse Council, State 4-H Horse Council for 1 year, Radisson Children’s Parties Group for 8 years, Radisson Little League, Radisson Harvest Festival, Skills USA for 1 year and Winter School Band for 1 year.
The activity she enjoys most is Honor Society because it allows her to give back to her community and be a role model to others.
Her favorite high school memory is when she went to the Co-op for potato wedges and chicken for Albert and they were all out.
The class Elaina enjoyed the most was Science because it allowed her to challenge herself while also learning hands-on.
Her biggest pet peeve is not having work done on time.
Outside of school, Elaina enjoys farming, riding horses, and working with her animals.
If she had one wish it would be to have all her dreams and goals come true.
The three words that best describe her are responsible, hardworking, and a role model.
After High School, Elaina plans to attend the University of Wisconsin River Falls majoring in Equine Science.
In 10 years, she sees herself with her own riding facility in the area where she offers riding lessons, horse training, and many more equine-related activities.
Three things on her bucket list are to attend the National Finals Rodeo, barrel race at the Pendleton Round-Up, and become a well-known horse trainer with her own arena and ranch.
The person she admires most is her grandpa because he allows her to work towards her goals without holding her back. He is her biggest supporter and favorite person.
The teacher who had the biggest impact on Elaina is Ms. Jess Spinner because she showed Elaina how to be more outgoing. She taught Elaina the basics of school and has been an influence throughout the entirety of school.
The thing Elaina will miss the most about Winter High School is how close to home it is. If there was one way she could be remembered at WHS, it would be as someone who tried her hardest and gave back as much as she could.
The advice Elaina would give underclassmen is even when you think you can’t do it, you can. Don’t give up and put yourself out there as much as possible. Always go the extra mile.
