In an attempt to
help me get on
Homecoming Court,
Shelby Cook made
a fake twitter
account to
campaign for
me. When
I saw it I
thought
that I
was a shoe in
for the top ten.
Sadly, people
werent as
encouraged to
vote for me as
I would have
liked

percent instead of a 95
percent . Im gonna try

Mrs. Simon gave her AP Art History class the task of taking a famous
painting and changing it in some way. Sophomore Anna Iyengar and
junior Samuel Stover decided to satirize the famous paintings, American
Gothic by Grant Wood and Folio 15 of the Coronation Gospels by Saint
Matthew. In return for completing this project, their grade would be
boosted. I changed the house in the back into a cake and instead of
the man holding a pitchfork, I made my dad hold a regular fork, said
Iyengar. She came about her inspiration as she had just finished eating the
pastry herself. Iyenger enjoyed making the photo, but wished she couldve
edited in the cake so that it would fit the picture more proportionally.
Stover, on the other hand, wouldnt change a thing about
his masterpiece. He conjured inspiration by flipping
through a book and seeing this guy who looked like he
was falling asleep said Stover. The differences between
the two portraits reflect the disparity in their artists
work ethic. Stover had fallen asleep from exhaustion
while in the original picture the man is working quite
diligently.

I started
rapping in 2nd
grade when I
performed in my
schools talent
show. When
people started
pointing out how
much they liked
the songs I made
for the morning
announcements,
I got more
involved. In 9th
grade, I started
performing
in national
competitions in
places like Seattle
and California. I
usually placed in
the top three. I
rap all of my own
pieces, and my
favorite song Ive
made is Livin
the Day, which
is about how I
started my music
and how I am
evolving every
day by doing
what I love

The loss of Truett Cathy, broke the hearts of Chick-fil-a regulars. Senior Amber Hartel
describes Truett as the type of person that gave people hope. He left me wanting to work
hard in everything I do. The shocking news of Truetts passing stunned the south. When I
heard the news I couldnt believe he was gone. Mr. Cathy was an inspiring Christian icon
and I will never forget him, confesses Ari Hughlon. While he touched the hearts of the
community around him, Truett Cathys legacy will always remain the same: the man that
stayed true to his religion. Anna Johnson said, Most people would say that Truett was
amazing because he closed his business on Sunday and while I believe this is true, I think
the fact that he never apologized for being a Christian was more impressive. Even though
such an iconic man has left this earth, his traditions and legacy will live forever in the lives

that he touched.
