Makayla Stewart, Editor in Chief

Makayla Stewart is a senior and this is her fourth semester in journalism and her third semester as an Editor-in-Chief. When she’s not in the throwing circles, you can find her helping DECA members, planning events with Student Council, playing Unified basketball, or writing articles for mock trial. She spends a lot of time in the school building, bouncing from one club or sport to another. She loves playing with her dog, Dexter, and online shopping for things she will never buy. She has always loved writing and is so happy to work with such an amazing crew.

Senior Krisha Ramani serves as Michigan’s Youth Governor, representing high school students, advocating for student voice and interacting with current state-level politicians. “With the rise of social media weve seen a lot of young people become informed and engaged much, much earlier than they had been 5-10 years ago. And I would say that that is kind of the key factor that makes now the exigent time for young people to have their voice heard,” Ramani said.
