1. Plastic Jewelry- Why would you spend a lot of money on fancy jewelry when you can have a perfect substitute for a fraction of the cost? Chances are that she probably won’t even notice that the jewelry isn’t real. Even better, when her friends ask her what she got for Valentine’s Day, she can proudly show off her shiny new necklace, and watch her friends become green with envy.
2. A New Gym Membership- Honestly, could there be a better gift? If your girlfriend is like some girls I know, she probably constantly makes you reassure her that she is in fact not fat, and looks good in what she is wearing. Why not be a thoughtful guy and eliminate the worry from her life? By giving a gym membership, you encourage your girlfriend to go out there and get the body that she really wants.
3. A Newborn Puppy- Picture this scene. Your girlfriend picks up the wrapped box you gave her, and hears a small whimpering noise. Maybe even a bark or two. She opens it, and, surprise! It’s a puppy! This is almost guaranteed to get your significant other to cry out of joy. And better yet, you don’t have to do anything else past that! She’s the one that gets to take care of the dog you gave her.
4. Your Left Ear- Let’s be honest guys, this one basically speaks for itself. Nothing says “end-ear-ing love” like removing your left ear and mailing it to your girlfriend. Look at the last guy who tried this. He ended up being one of the most famous artists of all time.
5. Convenience Store Flowers (With Price Tag Still On Them)- I saved the best for last with this one. This gift tells your girlfriend that you are compassionate, because you gave her a gift, but also sensible and worried about your finances.

![Musical theatre class runs through “Footloose” during their dress rehearsal. Senior student director Mia Morneault says how much she’s enjoyed working with the cast and crew. “I am very proud of all the cast and crew who worked as hard on it as I have. A lot of people care about [this show],” Morneault said. “I have a lot of friends on the cast and on the crew, but I’ve also grown and gained friendships through the show, even as director where I may be a little more stricter than normal. And I am very grateful for everyone I’ve gotten to work with.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/DSC_0657-1200x800.jpg)

Kato’s painting is a political piece inspired by a photo of elementary schoolers in the street protesting against ICE. “I think it's also symbolic because they're surrounded by snow, which can represent ICE, and they are still marching,” Kato said. “[The kids] are not stopping until equality or justice is served, which I think is really important to represent and show.” Photo by John Pinion](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Screenshot-2026-03-26-114740.png)










![Broadcast, yearbook and newspaper combined for 66 Interscholastic League Press Conference awards this year. Yearbook won 43, newspaper won 14 and broadcast took home nine. “I think [the ILPC awards] are a great way to give the kids some acknowledgement for all of their hard work,” newspaper and yearbook adviser Paige Hert said. “They typically spend the year covering everyone else’s big moments, so it’s really cool for them to be celebrated so many times and in so many different ways.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/edited-ILPC.jpg)




![Holding up the bi-district champions trophy, junior shortstop Hudson Cuevas cheers alongside his team. The varsity baseball team played in the bi-district round of playoffs against the Boerne Greyhounds April 30-May 2, where they won Game 1 6-4, lost Game 2 2-1 and won the last game 5-2, allowing them to advance to area. “Honestly, [my favorite] big moment that wasn't even part of my moment was Dom's grand slam,” Cuevas said. “That was a big game changer in Game 1 of round one that ultimately helped us win that game and even move on. It set the tone for the games after and has really impacted and sparked this whole playoff run.” Photo by Allie Tseng](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/allie-boerne00159-1200x800.jpg)
















![After he takes the handoff, senior running back Trae Hill runs down the field in search of a first down. Hill rushed for three touchdowns in the 43-36 loss against Frisco Wakeland last Friday, but the Timberwolves were eliminated from playoff contention. “[I’m] just happy I got to experience the game with my brothers,” Hill said. “I’m going to remember how close and how enjoyable everything was with these guys. They are my brothers for life. Just waking up and grinding together, and proving the naysayers wrong [was my favorite part].”
