MEET THE TEAM!

Let's take a look at the faces behind the scenes of The Scroll and the team that makes your Scrolling experience so grand and memorable!

THE SCROLL OFFICERS

Deenie Bulyalert

The Scroll President, Writer, Editor

She/They

Hi, beautiful people! My name is Deenie. Weird name, I know, but it's kind of cool. You may or may not know me, but I am this year's president of The Scroll and a Senior here at GP. Also, your new friend, if you wanna be.

If you have read The Scroll before, then you have definitely seen my name around. I write articles like interviewing people for our monthly mental health column and I also take on other projects, here and there.

I am pretty involved in the school, being part of 5 other clubs and an officer of 3, but being part of The Scroll has allowed me to come out of my comfort zone. I have been able to start being myself while doing things I love and I really adore being part of this team.

I love talking to people and understanding what makes them, them. If you need/want to contact me or talk to me about my dinosaur obsession, my email is p.bulyalert@d7apps.gp.k12.or.us

Stay kind, you’re amazing, and have fun reading :)

Lillie Olson

The Scroll Chief Editor

She/Her

Hey, loves! I'm Lillie Olson, a Junior, and a writer for The Scroll at Grants Pass High School. Also, I'm here if you ever need anything.

I write occasionally on various topics but mainly I just format and edit the issues. Along with this club, I am in Marching Band. (A flute, I know, I know. But I promise I don't fit the quiet stereotype). I always try to demonstrate and encourage others to take the most mature road and analyze situations from all points of view to find the most growth possible.

If you ever need to contact me, feel free to email me at my school email. I check it almost every day, so I promise not to ignore you.

l.olson@d7apps.gp.k12.or.us

Keep going. You got it! ♡

Amber Medina-Montoya

The Scroll Secretary

She/They/He

Hey there! My name's Amber and I'm a Junior here at GPHS. Aside from being The Scroll's Secretary, I also run the Song Reviews column and I do photography, as well. I'm also vice president for the Pride Club and, outside of school, you can probably find me participating in theatre productions around town or at work at Pita Pit. (I try to keep myself pretty busy most of the time.) If you need to contact me for any reason at all, feel free to email me at ambermedinamontoya@gmail.com

Have a good day, lovelies. <3

Kai Blackmon

The Scroll PR Director and Chief Sarcasm Kid

They/Them

Hello all! My name is Kai and, apart from running the Scroll's Instagram and making sure everything is up to date on information, I also primarily write satire articles for the issues. I work as the treasurer for the Thespian Troupe 2354 and I participate in community theatre, as well as our own high school theater productions. Yes, I am going insane; send help and/or coffee. I am currently a Sophomore and I can't wait to see what this year is going to be like--I could definitely do without some of my classes, though. If there is any need, you can contact me at zachaiblackmon@gmail.com and I will respond to you if I actually feel like being a good person. >:)

Have fun Scrolling!

Teagan McNamara

The Scroll Treasurer & Photojournalist

She/They

Hey everyone! My name is Teagan, and I am a Junior here at Grants Pass High School. This is now my third year of writing in Journalism and for The Scroll. I am also the Treasurer here for The Scroll club. I mostly write photojournalism and informative articles. I enjoy reading, photography, and drawing, which I like to incorporate into The Scroll. Outside of Scroll I am in a few other clubs such as Pride club and the Thespian troupe. You will usually find me with my friends. I also started getting involved in theatre that I enjoy too, which has a lot of fantastic people so you should join!

Check out our articles each month and give feedback. We have an astonishing, lovely and creative Scroll team here at GPHS, and I recommend joining us to make more great articles. If you need me for anything and would like to contact me, my email is t.mcnamara@d7apps.gp.k12.or.us I respond relatively quickly.

Thank you for supporting and reading The Scroll. I hope you enjoy loves! =)

THE SCROLL CLUB MEMBERS

Nathaniel Lee

Creative Writer/Storyspinner

Ayyyy! Wassup, readers? My name is Nathaniel. I'm a Junior, and this is my second year writing for The Scroll. I run the Creative Corner portion. I mostly do short stories, but I might try doing some informative articles, too. When I’m not reading or writing, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I also enjoy playing the viola and the piano, and singing. I regularly annoy my friends with crazy ideas, and if you ask any of them, they'll agree.

I hope that you enjoy my writing, and if you have any ideas for short stories, or any questions, you can email me at n.lee@d7apps.gp.k12.or.us

Have a swagalicious day.

AVERIE BLACK

Journalist

Hey there! I’m Averie Black, and I am a Sophomore at GP. I have been obsessed with writing ever since I read Percy Jackson in third grade, so I became a journalist for The Scroll! I specialize in random articles, so you'll see me pop up everywhere. When I’m not at school, tennis practice, or watching mindless YouTube videos, I enjoy creative writing and aggressively manifesting on the floor surrounded by crystals.

The Scroll has such a good community and offers so many opportunities I wouldn't have had otherwise. If you have any suggestions or just want to talk hit me up at a.black@d7apps.gp.k12.or.us

Happy reading :D

LILY ELFRINK

Opinion/Satire/Political Writer Person

Hello, fellow hum-beans! My name is Lily Elfrink, in case you for some reason missed the size 29 writing above, and I am a sophomore here at this school we attend (GPHS.) I have been in The Scroll since the beginning of my freshman year, and so far have found it incredibly enjoyable. My specialty is writing sometimes political articles that could be classified as both opinion and satire, and trying to write articles that I can't publish because they would "get Tyrrell fired" or whatever. What can I say? I like being difficult.

If you have an idea for an article or a complaint about another article, you can reach me at l.elfrink@d7apps.gp.k12.or.us.

Have a great time Scroll ing and read on, readers! (Or else.)

GarRison Gove

Journalist

Hello. My name is Garrison Gove. I am a junior. I mostly write about whatever useless information I have stored in my head, just in case someone else might find it interesting. I play the viola in the orchestra (sorry about your ribs, Mrs. DeBolt!) and am also involved in Brain Bowl. Outside of school and work, I mostly sit around editing wikis and contemplate how much of my life I'm wasting by sitting around editing wikis. I also enjoy rafting, skiing, and traveling, so I'd like to think I'm not a total loser. I love researching history and geography, both in the state of Oregon and on a global scale. If you have any ideas, complaints, or suggestions, you can contact me at g.gove@d7apps.gp.k12.or.us (but don't bother talking to me if you don't listen to the Violent Femmes or Primus.)

Karlee Cornell

Journalist

Hello, Scrollers! My name is Karlee. I'm a Junior here at Grants Pass High School. I make pop culture Articles for The Scroll. I love the idea of music articles, in general, so I'm very excited to share all sorts of different music artists and bands every month with you all. You can probably find me being completely fascinated by the school's library or find me with my friends. If you're bored and want to suggest something or want to talk about music, my email is k.cornell1@d7apps.gp.k12.or.us. I won't tune you out. I promise.

Madison heth

Journalist

Hey! I am Madison Heth, a junior here at Grants Pass High School. This is my second school year writing for The Scroll. I was introduced to Journalism during my second semester of sophomore year, and let's just say… I’ve loved it! I had never really thought about writing articles but it was something that I quickly began to enjoy. I particularly enjoy photojournalism and making satirical cartoons. A few (maybe) interesting facts about me are that I am a ballet dancer and an equestrian. Being a part of The Scroll has been a great experience for me. The group is incredibly accepting and just all around fun to be with. So, if you like writing or are interested in trying Journalism, I 100% recommend The Scroll!

If you have any questions, article ideas or concerns just let me know! My email is: @m.heth@d7apps.gp.k12.or.us

REGAN MORAN

Journalist

Howdy, Scrollers! I am Regan Moran, a junior at GPHS. I have been writing for The Scroll since my Sophomore year and have fallen in love with it ever since! Writing for The Scroll gives me freedom to write and report about any topic I find interesting. It is an amazing way to get into the community at the High School and find other people who also enjoy writing. The Scroll members are such a kind and talented group of young adults and I am so glad I am able to be a part of this community! Some interesting things about me would be that I enjoy horseback riding, quadding, baking, hiking, reading, camping, and spending time with friends and family. I have many values in my life but, if I could only pick a few, they would be my family, friends, and pets. I have two precious Nigerian Dwarf goats which are amazing pets to have-- if you like being hit in the shins constantly.

If you have any True Crime or GP Update recommendations, feel free to email me at r.moran@d7apps.gp.k12.or.us

Enjoy Scrolling! :)

Hello to all the cool people reading The Scroll this month! I hope you enjoy all of the incredible work that all of the Scrollians put into this fantastic newspaper.
