Kara, junior, has a passion for journalism. It is her favorite class, and the 16 year old loves Amplifier. She enjoys writing about sports and features. During her freshman year she took Journalism 1 and then decided she wouldn’t take it the next year. Kara regretted that decision, and returned to the class this year. It seems that she isn’t the only one in her family with an excitement over writing; her sister is currently looking for jobs as a journalist. When she is not buried deep into her studies, she loves being a normal teenager. Kara enjoys hanging with friends, and rooting on the Timbers and Blazers. Her family is going to Iran this year, which she will be detailing in upcoming articles. She’s going there to visit her family and for a wedding.

We’re just going to be playing out best by June, [and] that’s where champions are,” Rowe said.](https://wlhsnow.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/IMG_3077-1200x900.jpg)
