UNFAMILIAR HALLS by Emily Fraser
Picture this.
It’s your first day of school. You go through it once a year, but it’s different this time. Because today, you’re starting high school.
You’ve been at the same school, with the same people, for the last 3 years. But now you’re a freshman, navigating unfamiliar halls with faces you couldn’t name if your life depended on it.
Now it’s 4th period. You walk into your class, and don’t recognize a single person. All day you’ve been in classes with other freshmen. You didn’t know them all, but at least they were in the same boat as you, navigating those same unfamiliar halls.
You quickly find out that you are 1 of only 2 freshmen in the class. There’s 1 sophomore, but the rest are juniors and seniors.

WET BREAD by Gage Thomas
So I have this problem, a phobia even, of something I think is repulsive: wet bread. It’s pretty bad.
It is so bad that the thought of it was enough to make me gag and even vomit once or twice in the past. It sucks. I generally don’t like to tell people about it but I figured making light of it is the best way to deal with this problem. It makes for good writing. I do regret telling some of my closest friends though. It would be impossible for me to count the numerous times I have received snap chats from friends of pictures of wet bread or even posts to my Facebook timeline of photos of wet bread.
It is disgusting and I hate it.

ONCE BITTEN by Olga Gula
From the moment the house lights dimmed and everyone’s voice quieted, to the grand bow at the end with the audience giving an uproar of applause, The Passion of Dracula was a production to remember.
BREAKING THE BARRIERS by Victor Duran
Note: This video clip was produced by Evergreen School District’s program, YES-TV.
Senior Year, with the help of DECA, motivated me to create some kind of legacy at Heritage High School. Leaving a legacy means to build a path for others. My partner in the “Breaking the Barriers” campaign, Alyssa Ferguson, felt the best future for Heritage was for everyone to be excited about coming to school. Future students wouldn’t have to worry about being picked on, or not having someone to eat lunch with. We wanted all future students to be close with EVERYBODY, as if all 2200 students at HHS were all one family.
