About the Contributors

Piper Clark, Website Editor
My name is Piper Clark, and this is my first year in journalism. I am a junior in high school, and I participate in the fall play, 4H, key club, student government, speech, NHS, choir, and honor choir. I enjoy volunteering, listening to music, and spending time with my friends. I decided to join journalism this year because it’s a good opportunity to meet new people and continue what I did in the yearbook on a higher level. I’m excited to edit an amazing website this year!

MaKenna VanHaaften, Staff Writer
My name is MaKenna Van Haaften. I chose to be a part of journalism because I wanted to be more involved with my school and community. I like the fact I get out of my comfort zone a lot in this class. This is my first year of doing journalism. Some activities that I do outside of school are mainly play with my puppy and hang out with my family this school year. I am looking forward to how comfortable I can be out and about with “new” people.

Skyler Jennings, Staff Writer
My name is Skyler Jennings, and this is my 1st year in journalism as a staff member. I’m a sophomore and did 4 years in band, 6 years in choir, 2 years in football and track and field, and 1 year in basketball. I have a calico cat named Ash. In 10 years, I see myself being 4 years out of college with my master degree and working as a musical therapist.
