Sarah Lucas, Reporter

A new addition to the Amplifier staff, Sarah Lucas, freshman, is also new to the school. So far, she has enjoyed high school, and finds it to be more pleasant than middle and elementary school. She is very artistic, taking both Photo I and Art I. In her spare time, she enjoys sketching and taking photos as well. Lucas also portrays her artistic side through music. She plays the ukulele which she learned last summer, and also listens to Indie Rock. Her favorite bands are The Shins and The Strokes. Sarah participates in other activities like dance, and is currently taking hip-hop classes at Van De Veere Productions. She started dancing when she was in elementary school, took a break after sixth grade, and has now started taking lessons again.
