About

Philosophy

The name of our high-school literary-art magazine was chosen with careful consideration to the meaning. The name The Flame represents our magazine's philosophy: "Within each and every one of us burns a flame of creativity that can ignite things of wonder." We believe that every individual has a "flame" of creativity. It is our magazine's goal to showcase the best student writing from grades 9-12 for each school year, and if possible, to match each with a corresponding piece of art created by students as well.

Gabriella Cerra

Editor-in-Chief

Hello, my name is Gabriella Cerra! I am a junior and serving this year as Editor-in-Chief of The Flame. Last year, I was an editor, and through my experience, I gained a deep care for The Flame and its purpose as well as a desire to expand it to what it once was and hopefully will become again. Creativity is a passion of mine, and I hope this year, I will be able to contribute to making The Flame brought back to the forefront at Jim Thorpe!

Hi, I'm Danielle Harris. I am currently in my sophomore year, this being my second year as a Flame contributor and first as Copy Editor. I am involved in The Flame, the school newspaper, FBLA, Science Club, SADD, and Scholastic Scrimmage. I enjoy writing, reading, and listening to music. My hopes for The Flame this year and in years to come are an increase in members/contributors, a variety of opportunities for those who contribute to The Flame in and outside of school, and for it to be a well-recognized club.
