All students and staff are safe. “All of my friends left their stuff too, so we couldn’t contact our parents, and it was stressful,” senior Brynn Fowler said. “It was scary because I didn’t know [what was going on], and I couldn’t find anyone because it was a big crowd.” Photo by Anthony Garcia

Opening their backpack, a student puts away their phone. The Texas state legislature passed House Bill 1481 this fall, which banned phones in public schools. "Hopefully we'll see more engagement and instruction in the classroom and more consistent engagement throughout the lesson,” Dean of Instruction Jennifer Colman said. “People defaulted to using their phones, so hopefully it'll be more consistent in engagement, less distraction. And I think it's good for all of us to take breaks from our phones.”

So by camping by one person, it really limits yourself from being able to go see a bunch of people.” Photo courtesy of Ava Zuniga

Being involved in DECA, which requires students to take CTE course, and having taken Computer Science I in her freshman year, this was the first course Manoel considered as she already felt familiar with the environment. “I’d definitely recommend this class to anyone interested in pursuing computer science or cybersecurity,” Manoel said. “The workload is manageable, but still gives you the knowledge you need. Overall, it’s the environment that keeps me motivated to come to class every time.”
