Emily Ibarra Velsco, Reporter
I am in my senior year of high school. I am a member of the journalism club, but am also involved as a member in sobobans and also take part in the eisenhower band and orchestra. I strive to see how great journalism will grow into not just a school club, but a place where staff and students can also discuss and share their interests around people like them.
I am involved in the school newspaper because it’s nice to know that you can view events from school or around the world from a students perspective, knowing that the articles made are student based after all. I also joined because the newspaper makes you stand out for college applications and as a student, dedicating time outside of the usual classes in school. Students in journalism will realize that other students in the same newspaper will realize that they already have something in common, so it is nice to see people getting along and connecting with one another.
