Home Sweet Homecoming
Home Sweet Homecoming
By Kora Scalia - Homecoming 2025 included many traditions like Spirit Week, a Friday night football game, and the Homecoming dance. The fun filled Spirit Week began on Monday, October 6, 2025. The theme for Monday was "Nothing but a Backpack". Students from all four grades brought fun and exciting items to school instead of their backpacks. Some of the items were a bird cage, an RC car, strollers, suitcases, a tire, and many laundry baskets. The next few days continued to bring a lot of spirit to the school. Tuesday's theme invited students from each grade level to "dress as your holiday". The theme for Wednesday was "Bikers vs surfers" and the theme for Thursday was "Throwback Thursday". Of course, Friday was the Homecoming football game and the theme was "pink out."
Before the football game, the members of the homecoming court were announced.
Freshmen homecoming representatives were: Emma Wunderle, Abigail Myers and Kael Jordan. Braelyn Berg and Carsyn Swauger represented the sophomore class; Matilyn Brode and Tyler Nichols represented the junior class. The seniors on the homecoming court were as follows: Giana McKamey, Loudon White, Alexia Ramsell, Malena Harper, Miriyha Sandifer, Mason Scott, CJ Ross, Trenton Turney, Ziare Sanders and LaDarion Askew. The 2025 Homecoming queen and king were announced before the football games. Congratulations to Malena Harper and CJ Ross!

A Shell That Dooms Romance
A Shell That Dooms Romance
By Trinity Watson -Punished for being quirky? Ned the snail is 1 in 40,000 snails whose organs don’t line up with those of the rest of their species. His shell coils to the left, instead of the typical right, meaning unless there is another lefty snail, he is doomed to an eternal loveless life. When you have a left-coiling snail and a right-coiling snail, their shells can’t slide to meet up, leading to unsuccessful reproduction.
This predicament prompted a New Zealand nature lover, Giselle Clarkson, who found the snail in her garden in August, to launch a campaign to find Ned's eternal match.
