Gallery: Anti-Gun Violence Walkout

Students took part in a national walk out protesting gun violence organized by the nonprofit Students Demand Action. At 12 p.m. on Wednesday, April 5, students willing to participate walked out of their fifth-hour class to a rally held by East Against Gun Violence on the football field. EAGV co-presidents juniors Emma Kuhlman and Emma Krause spoke at the rally thanking everyone who participated and sharing ways students can help influence lawmakers to create change. Senior Gianna Sorce also spoke at the rally, sharing first-hand experience about how gun violence has affected her friends and family. At the conclusion of the rally, several students were interviewed by both FOX4 and 41 Action News.

Amelie Wong
Junior Amelie Wong is beyond excited for her second year on staff, this time as an assistant photo editor! You will most likely find Amelie sitting at her computer that’s about to crash from trying to upload and edit photos at the same time. When she’s not screaming at her computer thinking that it’ll make her photos upload faster, she’s probably drinking an ungodly amount of Red Bull and listening to Noah Kahan while working (struggling) on whatever homework assignment she put off until the last minute. »

Paige is going into her second semester on staff as the head of TikTok & Twitter, a photo mentor, staff videographer, a contest coordinator, and more. When she’s not busy with Harbinger, she is involved as sophomore class president, an East Fund ambassador, a SHARE chair, and working to make East more environmentally friendly independently and with the SME Environmental Club. She is working on her own to have electric carports installed and fundraising by hosting events such as her original fashion show in the fall of 2023. »

Photo Editor Macy Crosser believes there is no better way to spend her senior year than capturing photos or proofing captions in the J-room for Harbinger! If you can’t reach her (and you probably won’t), Crosser is either at drill team choreo, Kansas City Ballet, AP and IB classes, NHS Service chair meetings, TCP President duties or at dive team. Good luck finding her! In any spare time she has, there is a good chance she’s watching the sunset while listening to Taylor Swift, Celsius in hand. »
