The student council is set to take a field trip to Hershey Park on May 28. The trip is sponsored entirely by the revenue from the school store. Club members had to go to at least ten events (meetings, activities, etc.) to be able to go on the trip and had to supply $20 to hold their spot. 

“If anyone is interested in joining the student council, keep in mind the activities we do throughout the year and at the end of the year,” student council adviser Jessica Hogan said. 

Participants will leave the school by 8:30 a.m. and will be returning around 8:30 p.m. During their time at the park, they will have the opportunity to engage in any activities it has to offer.

Mattie Baker, Associate Editor
I am an associate editor and this is my second year on staff! I've always loved reading and writing. My dream job, at the moment, is to work at Barnes & Nobles and drink Starbucks on the daily. I'm obsessed with action movies like "Bullet Train," "John Wick" and "James Bond." I also have a passion for art. I've been taking extra art classes for over 10 years! Later in my life, I hope to be a storyboard artist and author.
