Kudos to those who work for the common good
The article Navarre Kerr wrote in the April edition about the perceptions of community service was on spot. I have found through personal experience volunteering for community service is exceptionally rewarding. It can build self-esteem and increase overall well being knowing you made a difference. It has been a pleasure to help the ‘Neighbors in [...]
Here we go again… a word from Mr. Schwab
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 [...]
Almost on the other side
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 [...]
New friday lunch programs
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 [...]
Don’t let it overwhelm you
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 [...]
Ahh…the good ol’ days
Hello. I’m a senior, and I have my eighth semester coming up. My comrades and I in the Class of Ten feel strange right now. We’re listless, languished, lackadaisical, and languorous after three and a half years of Mountlake Terrace High School. No doubt we have regrets and remorse. Maybe we should have done or [...]
Senior year should be fun, right?
Standing out in front of the school this week, I was enjoying one of our sunny afternoons. The warm weather reminded me of the fact that spring is just around the corner, if not here already, so it is time for few common sense reminders for all of us. Go to your classes. Seems simple [...]
Winter time
Hi. I’m sitting at my dark gloomy computer on this dark gloomy day writing this column, and can’t help but feel that all the energy in the school has been sucked out by some boring, malevolent force. There’s really nothing gravitating me towards Mountlake Terrace other than a desire to fix my broken grades that [...]
How to disagree
I was looking through my files in preparation for writing my letter to all of your for the upcoming edition of The Hawkeye and I came across something I wrote last year about building relationships with your teachers. As I reread this, it got me to thinking about some situations I have been involved in [...]
A big thank you to all
I am always a little bit sad on the Monday following Homecoming Week. After such an exciting and energetic week, the next week of school, while much calmer, makes me miss the enthusiasm that we all had. This year’s Homecoming was a great one. First off, let me thank our ASB and Stew for the [...]
