Yuval Alter is a Junior at Marjory Stoneman Douglas who escaped via the back of the neighboring Middle School, Westglades, immediately after the first few shots. She is enrolled in AP English Language and Composition, as well as AP Capstone Research and is a member of National Art Honor Society and Science National Honor Society.
