All Girls Considered
A new club has started here at Cedar Park
November 20, 2019
It is a podcast club called All Girls Considered. The podcast focuses on women in business, and its purpose is to help young women feel empowered.
“All girls considered seeks to create a safe space for girls to tell their stories and explore the power of storytelling through the creation of a podcast” Club Sponsor Kim Vidrine said. “Also just through listening and opening channels of communication and exposing girls to women who can serve as mentors.”
Although the club is new to Cedar Park, All Girls Considered has been a part of Leander ISD for a while.
“I was actually approached by someone and asked if I would consider doing it here on campus and I was thrilled because I really believe in the power of our stories, and writing our stories, and telling our stories” Vidrine said.
Freshman Paisley Shalles was one of the founders of this club and was inspired by her passion for business.”I was just inspired by how amazing my family friend is and I’ve been wanting to go into the business world since I was really young and that’s what my parents are in,” Shalles said.“So I just found it really inspirational that there are all these women showing us how I can do that.”
The other club sponsor Sarah Alarcon believes that it is a way for students to feel empowered.
“I want to feel-I want um, teens- young girls to feel empowered, I want them to feel like their voice matters,” Alarcon said. ”I want them to feel like they can do any career that they want, that they can chase any dreams that they have and that they are capable and I want them to know that what they have to say is important”
Something unique about all girls considered is that you don’t have to join to be affected. “I hope that the club can grow and everyone in the school will be able to see or at least know what we are because this isn’t the club where you have to join to be affected,” Shalles said.
“This is something that you can see and get inspired and that is what are true goal is to do.”

“There’s been times [when] there’s so much clothing stored here and it gets overwhelming, so I end up having to sleep somewhere else in the house,” Mckinney said.](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/DSC_0951-1200x800.jpg)

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)

"I feel like it’s not really appreciated in America as much, but [tennis] is a really competitive and mentally challenging sport,” Nguyen said. “I’m really level-headed and can keep my cool during a match, and that helps me play a bit better under pressure.” Photo by Kyra Cox](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/hasun.jpg)

Lucas broke the school’s 18-year-old record for the 500 freestyle at regionals and again at state with a time of 4:58.63. “I’d had my eye on that 500 record since my freshman year, so I was really excited to see if I could get it at regionals or districts,” Lucas said. “ State is always a really fun experience and medaling for the first time was really great. It was a very very tight race, [so] I was a bit surprised [that I medaled]. [There were] a lot of fast girls at the meet in general, [and] it was like a dogfight back and forth, back and forth.” Photo by Kaydence Wilkinson](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Kaydence-2.7-23-edit-2.jpg)

The event has been held for the past two years and is designed to raise money for the baseball program in a fun way. “We’re a baseball team, so people love to compete,” Cuevas said. “So we figured we better do something that gets [their] attention. They want to compete. It’s not a hard sport to do, and we have all different [skill] levels [of participants].” Photo by Henry Mueller](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Henry-715-1200x900.jpg)
