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)

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)

Book Review: Blood of Olympus
October 29, 2014
Book: Blood of Olympus
Author: Rick Riordan
Rating: 7/10
Price: $11.99 hardcover from Barnes and Noble
“Blood of Olympus” is the fifth and final book in the Heroes of Olympus series by Rick Riordan, and it marks the end of the Percy Jackson and Heroes of Olympus series.
The Doors of Death have finally been closed, but the giants have escaped, and Gaea, the goddess of the earth, is waking. The gods are no help because of their split personalities between their Greek and Roman forms. The seven demigods of the prophecy must make it to Athens in time to stop Gaea from waking and destroying the gods and the world.
The Heroes of Olympus series brought new characters, and another demigod camp, into the world of Percy Jackson. The prophecy of seven that first appeared in The Last Olympian, which is the fifth book of the Percy Jackson series, begins to unravel. We learn that the seven demigods of the prophecy are from both camps. Jason, Frank and Hazel from Camp Jupiter, and Percy, Annabeth, Leo and Piper from Camp Half-Blood. In an attempt by Hera to bring the two camps together, the seven finally meet and leave for Athens, but the two camps are now on the precipice of war.
The only way to stop the camps from fighting, and to heal the gods of their split personalities, is to bring the Athena Parthenos to Camp Half-Blood.
I waited eagerly for Rick Riordan’s latest book. As a big fan of the Percy Jackson series, I preordered the book and sat down to read it as soon as I got it in the mail. Although I finally got a point of view from a character that I wanted to read more about, I also didn’t get a point of view from some other characters that I really love.
Overall, it was a good read, but I felt that the ending wrapped up a little too quickly and easily, and there was a lot of things that I was hoping for to happen that didn’t.
Rick Riordan has also announced the release of another series about Norse mythology. The series, called Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard, will be release fall of 2015.
