By: Sarah Wang, 8th Grade, Student Writer
Time is flying by quickly and we are already one month into the school year! It is definitely a new experience, but students are slowly easing into it. Clubs and extracurricular activities are open! For example, Honor Orchestra and Jr. Beta have started and are holding meetings on Wednesday. Speaking of which, Orchestra is having a get-together night at Skate-A-Long USA on September 23. Ask your friends and family to have a fun night and pay attention to the morning announcements for additional details.
