![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)

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)

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)

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].”

Jack Johnson, the singer songwriter whose Pandora station is usually combined with that of Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat, has outdone his genre cohorts in his recent album “From Here to Now to You.” Johnson’s sixth studio album, and most arguably his best, was released on Sept. 17 and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart.
The first single released from the album, “I Got You” drew much anticipation to the release of the album. The album features 12 songs, with lyrics written entirely by Johnson. The album ranges from slow, laid-back songs to fast and catchy ones. Johnson has proven his diversity as an artist and clung to his uniqueness in instruments and sounds. Many of the new songs contain a range of instruments, from ukulele to glockenspiel.
One of the more upbeat and encouraging songs, “Radiate” is one of my personal favorites. This song, like many from the new album, has a tropical vibe. The lyrics are perfectly written and very uplifting, especially well suited for a high school audience. A more quirky and somewhat confusing song from the album is “Shot Reverse Shot” which is by no means a song you can sing-a-long to. The lyrics are uttered so fast and make absolutely no sense that it is most obviously a Jack Johnson song, who has a skill of making memorable tunes out of little logical sense. Though it lacks meaning, the song is a definite gem, and stands out from the other pieces.
The album is full of well-worded, memorable songs perfect for relaxing on a fall day. The charts, in this case, do not lie. “From Here to Now to You” is most definitely deserving of a number one rank.
