The last one standing on his team, senior Sammy Attaguile catches a ball and gets a teammate back in, causing a commotion in the stands. Also on the team, sophomore Raymund Lin said that they all knew each other well, but Attaguile’s skill surprised everyone. “I was in class one day and one of my robotics teammates came in and asked the teacher if he could snatch me,” Lin said. “He led me to the robotics room and told me to sign a form to play in the tournament. I was basically volun-told to play, but I didn’t mind. I did miss a couple of DENs where I had to do something for one of my classes though. There are some regrets but also some fun memories from the experience.”

As a part of the Teen Click It or Ticket campaign, Campa travels the state to give presentations on traffic safety. “Were here to remind everybody to be safe, and how simple it is to put on your seatbelt to save your life,” Campa said. “And its not only your life, but also reminding your friends.

Cars drive past the new school sign as it lights up the night air surrounding it. The sign-lighting ceremony took place Dec. 20 at 5:45 p.m. and was open to the public. “It was definitely a relief though to know that the project was finally done after all the hard work we put in,” senior Mason Kasel said. “I think the sign is an important reminder of how truly unique our school is. There are also wonderful programs, such as the welding program, where students can learn important skills and at the same time channel their creativity.”

Supporting senior Gavin Horton by his shoulders, sophomore and actor Darius Normandi poses for a group picture with part of Clue’s cast. The play will be in the cafeteria, bringing other challenges along with it. “I’m really excited because I’ve never done a 360-degree level cafeteria performance before,” Normandi said. “I really hope it turns out well, but I don’t have any experience with this kind of thing. I trust that other people know what they’re doing though. It has been tiring with all the late nights going home after school, but I really hope everyone enjoys it and that our efforts have been worth it.” Used with permission from Leilani Ibanez

Dressed as a cow, PALs member and junior Lynnea Bergman smiles at her friends with a face covered in whipped cream. The annual trunk or treat took place on Oct. 26 during which the PALs pie in the face activity was very popular, according to Bergman. “We were doing a pie in the face and cakewalk to get the kids to have fun,” Bergman said. “Some of the kids in the PALs [program were at the trunk or treat] and they got to pie us in the face. [My favorite memory] so far is probably getting pied in the face by a four year old. He went so hard and it was very funny.” Photo courtesy of Lilly Adams, used with permission

Frozen in place, the actors sophomores Leilani Ibanez, Ben Akers and Mia  Morneault perform in front of an audience for the PNG performance. The game they were playing is called Suggestions where the audience dictates what happens in the scene.  “PNG is like a family, Akers said. We joke around and sometimes we hate each other but most of the time we love each other and we’re always there to support each other. You can never really control who you interact with at any given time which I think is the funnest part of it.”

Posing next to her 2015 Hyundai Sonata, junior and Celebrities Dance Team Second Lieutenant Sophie Poulsen holds up her license. Poulsen’s car was stolen on Aug. 28 from the school parking lot, and was missing for a day before police recovered it. “I was shocked,” Poulsen said. “I never expected, especially in Cedar Park, for my car to get stolen. I still don’t know who [stole my car], but I wish I knew. I don’t think the cops are going to figure it out, because there’s no point. It already happened. We’re probably never going to know. I feel like it was a student, but who knows? [Nevertheless], Cedar Park is not that [kind of place].”
