Aubrey Walters
Editor-in-Chief
I’m a junior and am so excited to be back for my third year on staff! When I’m not editing articles or working to make the website pretty, you can find me at work or taking a nap with my cats, Leo and Lyra. I’ve got an affinity for sad girl music and 80’s and 90’s rom coms, and I’ll take any opportunity I can get to write about either of those things. Feel free to reach out to me with any comments, questions, or requests!

Callie Copeland
Staff Writer: music & media
Hi! I’m a junior and this will be my first official year on newspaper staff. I’m thrilled to exercise and showcase my passions through this club. You can often find me writing poetry (unpopular opinion, but it’s my favorite thing to write) with my nose in a cheesy romance novel, or re-watching Friends for the thousandth time. I also always have my headphones in, so I’d love for you to ask what I’m listening to if you see me in the halls. I can’t wait to see how all our talents collaborate this year!

Hi! I’m Alyssa and this is my first year on newspaper. I danced for 14 years, but recently devoted more of my time to my friends, family, and school. Growing up in dance, I was really into costume design and eventually became interested in all sorts of fashion, so I am so excited to write for the fashion column this year!

I’m a sophomore, and this is my first year on the newspaper. I’m really looking forward to it. I’m writing for the sports section because I really enjoy going to games and keeping up with our school sports teams. I play softball almost year-round, but when I’m not, I’m either working out, reading, or baking.

Noah Koenig
Staff Writer: personal pieces & interviews
I’m a junior, and I’ve been at Central for five years now. I’m excited to work on the newspaper, when I’m not struggling in AP Chem that is. (Noah did not have any current pictures of himself, so he decided to grace us with this wonderful picture of him as a baby instead).

Hi guys! I’m a junior, and this is my first year in this club, which I’m super excited about! My writing will mainly be focused on providing information on political/controversial topics. In my free time, you’ll probably catch me watching random shows or being stressed out about school π
