Sarah Bol is currently a junior in high school, taking on two AP classes and 11 clubs, these being AP Environmental Science & AP United States History, The Paper Cut, Student Government, National Honor Society, Link Crew, Marching Band, Winterguard, Robotics, Book Club, Girls Tennis Manager, Jazz Band, and Humanity United Club. On top of all this, Sarah is a part-time fast food worker.
Sarah has been working on The Paper Cut for three years now and is an Editor. Sarah has set her focus on getting into the University of Arizona to study journalism and become a broadcast political analyst, also continuing music studies. Sarah’s passions include studying politics, taking photos, music, and much more. Sarah’s known to have a very busy schedule, often having to turn down hangouts because of school, clubs, or work. Because of that dedication to her craft, Sarah has won many awards, one of her most prideful being the Cougar Spirit Award that she received at the 2025 honors and awards night. But Sarah’s portfolio doesn’t end there; this past summer, Sarah completed a program called Camp Cronkite, a camp held at the ASU Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communications. While there, Sarah learned from some of the best journalism professors in the country; they delved into many topics, including Podcast Strategy, Catchy Ledes and Headlines, and Videography.
Sarah comes from a long line of artists; her grandfather was a sculptor, painter, and photographer, and her grandmother was a music teacher and photographer. Her mother was an arts student at Brooklyn High School of the Arts in New York, and her sister is a clarinetist. Growing up surrounded by the arts, Sarah has dipped her toes into many forms of media, her most recent being music. Sarah is in our color guard, where they perform with the marching band using dance and auxiliary arts. Now she’s taking it one step forward by learning the clarinet and the trumpet.
