Luca LaVeta is a junior at Community High School, and this is their second year on staff! They’re a part of practically everything offered at CHS, including CET, Mock Trial, Wes Anderson Clurb and the best forum, the Stern Forum. When they aren’t busy being a part of their countless extracurriculars, buying lots of pick-me-up sweet treats and doing calculus homework, they love to watch movies, read books about insufferable characters and hang out with their buddies. Luca is so excited to help guide The Communicator this year as a Web Editor-in-Chief!

"I’m really excited for senior year," Stansfield said. "I think it’ll be really fun, and it’ll feel good to get college applications done, but it’s also nerve-racking because of how fast high school has gone by."

Ellie Fox, CHS junior and photography editor, is a little foreign to basketball. Although she had her camera, which she often uses to express herself. "I really enjoyed taking photos of the staff vs. student game," Fox said. "Basketball isn’t a sport I usually watch, so seeing students and teachers face off was a fun way to get into an activity that I’m not super familiar with. Being able to capture those moments important to the game on my camera is one of my favorite parts of being a photographer.”

Claire Lewis and Eloise Macdouglad are popcorn fiens, you could say. When entering their fourth block Film Lit class, they were seen with a huge bag of popcorn. "Me and Eloise found this really big bag of popcorn on the side of the road right next to the state theater," Lewis said. "I wouldn’t really say we found it, it was more like it found us."

Sylvia Stoermer, a CHS freshman, is adjusting to high school with a mix of excitement and determination. The start of her freshman year was rocky due to the significant shift from middle school to high school, but she credits the support of others for helping her thrive. "Honestly, the beginning of my freshman year was a little rocky in the beginning because of the HUGE shift from middle school to high school, but I had a lot of really supportive people that helped me get my feet back under me and really start to thrive at community," Stoermer said. "And I'm really thankful that I get to be part of the experience at CHS!"
