Adviser: Karla Sprague

Walsworth representative: Jenny Olson - CJEIn their own words:
"As we pull into the parking lot, we are greeted by a sense of strength, a dominating presence in the West, a richness.
"White towering columns stand guard at every entrance of the school, permeating a feeling of awe and grandeur.
"We grab our North Face backpacks from the backset of our BMWs and Land Rovers, as we walk into school wearing our LuLuLemon leggings and Air Jordans.
---
"We filled the stands for Senior Night even though it was 27 degrees outside, and the field was full of students singing the Alma Mater when we beat Rogers 70-29. No one could look away as we watched on YouTube our volleyball team lose to Southside in the state semi-finals.
"Primetimes are spent practicing our choir music or sneaking off to our favorite teacher's room. Others are on the green team.
"We are more than meets the eye. We are the success story, the pride of Har-Ber High, so. much. more."

"But this is what's honest about us now. A bigger weightroom and lockerrooms in our gym. A steam building in the works. A remodeled cafeteria. Student Council for our Middle School students. Chromebooks for every student. A library with colorful walls. Added classes in Kindergarten and Sixth grade."

"We are DRIVEN to do our best academically. The Math Counts team took first place at the state competition. After numerous hours of building and programming robots, the Robotics team won the VEX Teamwork State Championship in March.
"We are INTENSE because over 70% of our student body play a sport. Also, for the fourth time in a row, the Girls Cross Country Team and the Eighth Grade Boys Basketball Team won the Conference Championship.
"We are LOUD because thirteen students were selected to be in All Region Band, seven in All Region Choir, and in seven All Region Orchestra.
"We are SOCIAL by cheering with our friends in the student section on Mondays and Thursdays, and by hanging out in the courtyard or cafeteria before school."

The magnet theme attracted a global perspective to classes, mixing students from different cultures and backgrounds into one strong student body. Personalities shown as students focused on their passions, giving back and supporting the local community while also becoming examples of success. Students and teachers alike were driven, responsible, inspired, valued, and energized to learn, grow and make a difference.

“You know you’re thinking, maybe it’s just me but... I can’t be the only one who is basically falling up S building stairs, right?
“One extra hour for common planning days doesn’t give me enough time to get anything done – not even sleep!
“I really like hearing the Wednesday announcements because they’re a great way to start my day.

“M&M cookies will make us feel like kids forever, and there’s nothing wrong with that.

“No matter what, we knew we would oversleep. But instead of worrying about getting a HERO pass while pushing 45 on Lockwood, we cried about our ID still on the kitchen counter.
“No matter what, we knew there would be a ton of freshmen. But who knew they would be unphased by the ‘freshman suck’ chant and put up a fight for the spirit stick?
---
“Dissecting hearts in Anatomy, even though we got a little queasy. Auditioning for ‘The Crucible,’ even if we were on crutches. Front and center behind the scenes or cheering on the sidelines, no matter what, we were there.
“Yes – things got different. It could have thrown us off, but it didn’t matter. Whatever happened, we rolled with it. No matter what.”

Walsworth representative: John KelleyIn their own words:
“’New Year, New Me.’ For high schoolers, this mantra relates to the start of the school year, not January 1. We all had an idea of how we wanted this year to go. We would travel to DECA internationals or eat out lunch every day. We’d apply to our dream college or get all A’s. We had a plan, and we were sure it was going to go exactly as we thought.
“What we didn’t know was just how much we were going to change. Sometimes because of our own choices, and sometimes based on things we couldn’t control.”
----
“Then there was that moment that changed everything. We walked out of school on March 13 ready to grab our suitcases and travel to the Bahamas or Seaside. We didn’t take the time to say goodbye to all of our teachers or look back as we drove out of the parking lot. We thought we’d be back in 10 days, ready for two more months of eating Pizza Hut lunches, studying Quizlets and counting down the days until May 22.
“But we’re getting ahead of ourselves. We didn’t know what was going to happen when we walked through the office doors on August 13. We had no idea how our stories would unfold.”

“How to solve that proof in geometry, or why those Puppy Love dogs in biology have black spots instead of white.
“No matter how hard we cram, no matter how hard we practice or audition, it’s easy to feel like we just can’t get it all in.”

“Oh, so you wanna know this school like we do? Sorry, but you’re gonna have to step inside.
“And stay. For nine whole months...or seven. That’s what it takes to know Northwest. Oh, we know what’s coming.”

“There are so many changes: braces, first crushes, new friends, lockers that are always getting jammed, learning how to deal with six teachers at one time, homework that just gets harder, approaching that dreamed-of-but-uncertain future.
“My mind is crazy and cluttered constantly with things like, ‘Does my outfit look off? I hope that person likes me. I’m so hungry I could eat a cow! That was due today?!... Jeesh, it’s too much! I need a nap.
“I always have so much to do, and my thoughts are always racing. Middle School! A crazy, weird time that rushes past in the blink of an eye. How do you capture it, summarize it, and make sense of it? Especially when you’re in the middle of it? I can’t tell you what it means to grow up... I’m still doing it. I can just tell you what we’re doing right now and how we feel about it.

“Try and think of the last time something went exactly as planned. It’s tough, right?
“It’s going to work out or it’s not. That’s just the way it goes sometimes. You can never really be certain of the outcome. You may get lost during freshman orientation. Maybe Coach Julie Spinelli makes you run sprints because you had a rough game the day before, or maybe a teacher throws a pie in your face after the Tug-O-War. Your dad may surprise you by coming home early from deployment. You may spot Simeon Omorodion and get the Green Wall screaming his name.
“You can spend all the time you want in anticipation. But eventually the outcome will be what it’s going to be. It is what it is.”

“When the final morning bell rings, students rise to state the pledge, and then the day truly starts. In the wake of such a chaotic referendum only a few months prior, it could easily look like a peaceful scene – students listening as a teacher talks, have a respectful discussion, or taking a test – in every classroom lining the hallways.
“In reality, it’s so much more.....”

Adviser: Heather Rice
Editor: Emily Parker
Walsworth representative: Tracy de la Feuillez - CJEIn their own words:
“The definition in the English dictionary for the word Extra is to be greater than the usual. But the term given for going above and beyond the normal standards, and going the Extra mile, describes someone who is So Extra. In the past, calling someone ‘Extra’ could have had a negative connotation, but today, the word has become a term of endearment or a compliment to someone’s approach to life.
“Open Mic performances were So Extra! Those who performed also had courage and did brave things, like Isnayah Barnes, seventh grade, who took the stage several times during Open Mic, and passionately performed her free and expressive dance routines. When Neo Layton, 11th grade, ended his original poetry readings with his So Extra back flips, the crowd went wild with applause!”

“We held our first Ted Talk event, and it sold out. We took selfies for CAS log proofs, to get the hours any way we can. We stressed about passing our certification test. But became certified anyway. And just like that, our medical careers started.
“All five robotics teams made it to states and we put on the first ever production of ‘Bright Star’ in Pinellas County. They say you can’t be good at academics and arts but we are anyway.
“Basketball player Connor Bartholomew broke two school records, and it’s only his junior year. The swim team seniors got to graduate going all four years undefeated.
