The prom committee reviews photo booth options during an afterschool meeting held in English teacher Jeanny Haneline’s classroom on Feb. 9 . In previous years, prom has had a photo flipbook station to commemorate the event, but due to overbooking this year, the photo booth options have changed. “I know our photo vendor is changing this year, so I know we are able to put in a very different photography experience for students that is going to be even better,” family consumer science teacher Jamie Leonard said.

The HawkAppella choir closes out the pep rally by leading the crowd in the school song. “This was my first time performing in a pep rally,” junior Christopher Clausen said. “It was very exciting to go down to the court and sing a song for most of the school. At first I was a bit nervous, but since I was singing with my friend it was fun and enjoyable. I got a chance to sing in front of my classmates that didn’t go to our concerts and was happy that they got to hear us.”

Protesters march with signs in front of the Carrollton Municipal Court. The protest was in solidarity with other Black Lives Matter protests across the nation, but there are many other ways to support the BLM movement. “Try to research as much as you can,” senior Jacquelyn Burrer said. “Read as many things as you can to learn about the reforms that need to happen. Obviously, not everyone will want the same level of reform, but there is a common goal in the movement: that something needs to change. As long as people are getting involved and continue to speak out about what is important, we can prioritize changing the system.”

After football season ended, the girls started preparing for their annual Spring Show which has been canceled due to COVID-19. “As hard as practices were, I miss them a lot,” captain Mariah McCardell said. “We have a habit of complaining about waking up super early, but at the end of the day, those girls are what got me through those early mornings and now I don’t get to see them. I wish I had taken the time to realize how lucky I am.”

I surveyed my family to see what kind of bread I should make, and they all requested rosemary bread. I decided to use the recipe from the website Cooking Carnival. This recipe caught my eye not only because it’s a no-knead bread, but I could also use an Instant Pot to speed up the proofing process which activates the yeast in the dough. This bread recipe called for olive oil, granulated sugar, instant yeast, fresh rosemary, bread flour and salt. I wanted to see if there really was a difference between making the bread with all-purpose flour and bread flour, so I made two batches with all-purpose flour and two with bread flour. They ended up being the same, so if you don’t have bread flour, all-purpose works just fine. The recipe also calls for fresh rosemary, but the only thing I had was dried rosemary. Even though I used dried rosemary, the bread came out with good flavor.

The Hebron/Lewisville boys JV team tries to block a pass by the opposing team. This is the Hebron Swim and Dive team’s second year to sponsor water polo. “We always played water polo as a game during the swim off-season,” senior Quinten Frank said. “We would play water polo, ultimate frisbee and anything just to have fun. The team really liked to play water polo so we adopted it. The team is mainly just swimmers, but there were a couple people who came who were not swimmers.”
