Attach resume to cold email for older students?

Incoming freshman at a target. It's on the other side of the country, and I know nobody (and pretty much nothing about the school). Want to reach out to older students. Should I attach a resume to the email? I have a strong resume. Would I get more responses/good first impression or would it come off as hardo. Thank you!!

Not quite sure how you can have a strong resume as a senior in high school, but definitely attach it in all networking related outreach. Use online guides for formatting guidance

 

Thanks for the advice! I guess it wouldn't be too impressive, but maybe for a hs student. I had a couple research positions at t10s, a few notable academic awards, and a consulting+WM internship

 

Thanks for the feedback! I'm only reaching out because I don't really know anything about the school, and I'm trying to decide where to go 😅
