It’s not often that West Linn has a bear scare, like the one we had on September 7, the first day of the year. Students had many different ideas about what the bear really was:

Brett Bushnell, freshman:

“I think it was a bear.”

Jessica Hodgen, sophomore:

“I’m not sure what it was, but I’m pretty sure it wasn’t a bear.”

Ronnie Howard, junior:

“Joey Joyce.”

Evric Jenkins, senior:

“I think the bear was someone who saw a shadow and they freaked out.”
