Still Walking After 90 Years
By Chyan Hunte
This year the freshmen started their walks of Saviour pride, the
sophomores and juniors continued theirs, and the seniors ended theirs in
sadness and enjoyment.
|
Walk-a-thon, being
the first major school event of the year, is one in which the students
of our school look forward to. We look forward to walk-a-thon because we
make memories, whether it’s by talking, laughing, or just having a
good time.

However, at the same time, we dread walking two very, very long laps
around the park. But I guess that’s why they call it walk-a-thon! |
| Friendly
Competition
By Natalie Musumeci
I think the students of St. Saviour would agree with me when I say
that practicing for Song Contest truly kicks off the school year. Every
morning in homeroom you could hear the Funky Frosh, the Rock and Roll
Sophs, the Under the Sea Juniors, and the Save Our Seniors chantingt
heir Song Contest songs throughout the hallways. Usually the freshman
never heard of a thing called Song Contest, but when the practicing
begins, the true competition starts.

The dance, song, and
banner committees for each grade rush to make deadline so no points are
deducted by Ms. Draghi. In my opinion, we wouldn’t even have a Song
Contest if it wasn’t for our very own Ms. Draghi. She and Mr. Huie our
“song and dance man” work hard every year in order to put our show
together. We all know this year that the seniors took 1st place again at
their last Song Contest. Senior leader, Amanda Magnavita says, “Even
though the juniors were solid competition, I had a lot of confidence in
my girls because they worked hard.”

All the grades worked hard this year. On the nights of
Song contest the true St. Saviour spirit comes out in the girls. You can
truly feel the school spirit that’s hardly felt during the regular
school days. Glitter and props are all around and big group pictures are
being taken. The Song Contest cheerleaders and Varsity Cheerleaders are
practicing their moves in the halls and everyone has this nervous
feeling inside them.
Our school is smaller than other schools, therefore we
may not have as many events as other schools, but we have Song Contest
which is the one event that all the girls of St. Saviour look forward to
every year. |
