Emma’s Book Reviews: Pride and Prejudice and Zombies
“It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains” – Pride and Prejudice and Zombies I have never witnessed so strange of a crossover between genres as Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.

Halloween 2023: Construction Edition
The spookiest day of the year is upon us and there is a seemingly very large lack of Halloween spirit in the halls of AHS. In comparison to past years, not many seniors, if any at all, dressed up in a scary or fun costume to celebrate Halloween. Also, in contrast to past years, there…
Guest Editorial by Abby Brooks: Remember Matthew Perry for his Humor and Honesty
I’ve watched Friends for years, watching it every night with my mom in the living room. I picked up the book Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Things, written by Matthew Perry, because I was interested in another point of view that occurred during the long filming of the show.

Student Editorial, 1st 9 weeks of 2023: Lucy Myers

Student Perspectives: 1st 9 weeks of 2023 Editorial by Eli Gardner
It was a very up-and-down first 9 weeks of the year for me in my sophomore year. My day 1 is very easy with an open mod and gym class. Although, my day 2 is very jampacked. I have honors world affairs and honors English, and those days feel like 24 hours. I have no…
