Tis the season, yes everyone it’s that time of year! The time of year where basketballs are bouncing, boys swimmers are swimming and wrastlers are wrastling (My grandfather used to say “wrastlin”) It’s also that time of year for our annual canned food drive and the “Pursuit of the Power Plunger” trophy is awaiting this year’s [...]
Dear editor: As a senior our last homecoming means more than the world to us, and it feels as if it has been snatched from us. Many of us feel like having the senior meeting the morning of the assembly knocked down our spirit level. Half of the information they told us applied only to [...]
I Love Mountlake Terrace High School…and I want you to love it to. I graduated from Ballard High in 1974 and I loved every minute of my high school experience. Why? In the ’70s our BHS community cared about each other. We wanted everyone to be part of the experience regardless of who they were. I have [...]
A couple of recent incidents involving our student body have me kind of bugged. Since I get to write this column for each edition of the Hawkeye, I thought I’d make this a topic. Simply put — what’s with all the booing and negative cheering going on this year? Twice now I have heard it from our [...]

The article Navarre Kerr wrote in the April edition about the perceptions of community service was on spot.

It has been a pleasure to help the ‘Neighbors in [...]
For the past couple of years at around this same time of the school year, we have had the difficult challenge of creating a school program that operates on less funding than we had the year before. This year is no different. Again, we are faced with some significant challenges in funding that will have [...]
Hey Terrace! Kaitlyn here, I’m filling in for Jack since he is still kayaking on an island somewhere… but anyway we are coming to the end of the year and a lot of fun events are coming up. We just had class elections. Congratulations to the new and returning ASB class officers! Next year should [...]
Hi Terrace! I regret to inform you that Jack Clinch will no longer be writing this column due to the fact that he is no longer willing to speak or write the English language. The rest of Big 6 and I will fill in for him and hope that our articles will receive his silent [...]
We’re close to the end of the school year and most likely the amount of work on your plate is starting to increase significantly for you, as it is for me. Senior Project, essays to write, math homework, test, quizzes, family obligations, jobs—all these things tend to impact you as they do for other students [...]
