There is a common misconception that the news section is boring or contains irrelevant facts. However, that is far from the truth. Co-Head Editors Mayo Ou and Lisa Yi with the help of Assistant Editor Callum Stewart-Glavin have cultivated a news section that represents something far greater than just news. Along with carrying the multitude of academic excellence to extracurricular activities such as cross country, swim, and speech and debate, the news section offers fun, creativity, and, most importantly, facts, for these editors. Indeed, many people think the news section is boring because it is just facts, but the news section is far more entertaining than you might think. Yi says that she joined the news section because of the variety of topics that could be chosen to write about, which gives her a sense of freedom. Ou, personally, says the news section has one of the most applicable articles to students as students can easily relate to what they are reading. Ranging from articles about El Roble’s vaping problem to who the next representative was elected in the House of Representatives, the news section is a section that goes beyond just the facts.

Kate Mitchell, Co-Head News Editor
Kate Mitchell is eager to start her senior year at CHS as the Co-Head News Editor and one of the social media managers. The Wolfpacket has impacted Mitchell tremendously throughout her three years on the staff. She has learned so much from her fellow staff members in and outside of fourth period. Mitchell is excited to spend her senior year back in room 104 with her Wolfpacket friends. Switching from Features to News Editor this year, Mitchell is ready to see all the new ideas this section will bring to the front page. Outside of the packet Mitchell is starting her 13th year of Girl Scouts as an Ambassador, hopefully she will finish her Gold Award soon. She also enjoys concerts, traveling and traveling to concerts. Over the summer Mitchell went to the Eras tour in Munich, Germany well kind of… She stood outside of the Olympic Stadium alongside 50,000 other swifties just enjoying the atmosphere and slightly jealous of the 70,000 swifties inside watching the show up close. As Mitchell finishes up her college applications and boat loads of homework she hopes to find some time to enjoy all of the fun activities senior year has to offer!
