Riley Nylund, Comics Editor
Riley Nylund, freshman, is in her first year taking journalism at the high school.
“I’m very excited to finally be in a normal school, though it’s hard to get used to the large classes and all the people,” Nylund said.
So far in journalism class, Nylund has felt encouraged and accepted by her teachers and classmates.
“I’m not sure how journalism will impact my future, but I think it will be a fun experience and it will improve my writing skills,” Nylund said.
In her future, she hopes to become a veterinarian. Her love of animals has inspired this goal.
“I'm excited to be on this journey and work towards my goal,” Nylund said.
