“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)

We’re Goin’ Back to Hogwarts
As everyone hears of the news about the continuing of the Harry Potter series in the form of a play, there are mixed emotions. “It’s kind of disappointing that it’s going to be in play form,” junior Jack Wegesin said. “It will probably still be popular though because it’s Harry Potter.”
September 3, 2015
While most students are focused on the start of a brand new school year, many have forgotten that Sep. 1 also marks the first day of Hogwarts, and the very first day of one James S. Potter, whom was sorted, not surprisingly, into Gryffindor.
“Who doesn’t want to be in the same house as Harry Potter,” senior Maria Tangarova said. “Come on.”
And that’s not all, the boy wizard that shaped a generation, has once again risen up on his broomstick. The latest in Harry Potter news comes from the queen, J.K Rowling herself, Rowling revealed that an eighth installment of the beloved series would be introduced sometime in 2016, as a play: Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.
“I think it will add to our appreciation of the fantastic series,” sophomore Carson Burke said. “It’ll add a different perspective through which we can witness the series.”
Many fans like Burke are elated, but wary of the idea of a continuation in the story of their favorite boy wizard, and most importantly a change in cast.
“It could either be a big success or a big mistake,” junior Zac Galer said. “As a fan, of course I’m excited to see what else Rowling can do with the series.”
Whether it’s a book, or a play, these Potterheads seem thrilled by the idea of another chance to submerse themselves in the world of Harry Potter.
“Harry Potter very much defined a lot of my childhood,” junior Sarah Ray said. “It will continue for generations.”

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)
