Hey guys, my name is Harrison. I’m a senior and this is my first year on the newspaper staff. I’m in band, choir, and I also swim. I’ll mostly be covering the musical arts, but I’ll also be writing articles for the swim team. Both of my parents work here, so that’s pretty cool. Other than that, my life is pretty boring. Follow me on IG @harrisoncottrill. Oh, and follow Will on Tik Tok. He wants to be famous. Bye guys!
