"A lesson I've learned that has stuck with me the most is something that was never told to me but that I learned by myself. I learned that I cannot compare myself to the people around me. I am not my siblings. I am not my friends. Everyone has different lives and things going on. You have no idea about that, so if one day they seem better or worse than you, then they have their reasons. Everyone is doing their best, and that is what matters. I always got sad when my teammates scored more goals or my brother got better grades until I realized that instead of being sorry that I couldn't, I should be happy they could." - Iris Eckrich, 9

Sophomore Audrey Schulz and junior Christopher Lowry terminate their tap duet of “You Can’t Have Me (If You Don’t Have Him)” from the musical, “Some Like It Hot.” Schulz and Lowry have become close friends after working together in theater for five years. “Originally, we were looking for some songs that represented friendship, fun and whimsy,” Lowry said. “We both had just done a tap number together in GCPA’s production of “The Prom,” so we wanted to make sure we could do something like that together.”

Senior Maddie Meyers cradles down the field at the girls varsity lacrosse game against Parkway South. The current season record is 2-0. “Our season so far has been challenging, rewarding, and extremely competitive,” Meyers said. “One of the highlights so far has been our first game against Hazelwood West -- we won by a landslide, stayed composed amidst frustrating playing, and celebrated with Fro Yo after! It couldn't have been a better start to my senior season.”
HUMANS OF CLAYTON
"I always forgive everybody. I believe in second chances. I believe that people change. I feel like it's not fair if you just don't forgive people because how are you supposed to move on with life? There's just no point. You can still forgive someone and not want to talk to them. But I guess I'd say with my mom, I have a really complicated relationship with her, but obviously, it's not going to stop me from being her daughter. Holding that grudge doesn’t really do anything for me." - Ashley Ngo, 11
