Girls gymnastics district-wide will have its final

Girls gymnastics district-wide will have its final season next fall after Sunflower League announced the sport’s retirement in an email sent to coaches on May 1. The decision will affect 12 active teams in the league, including the Lancers.

“This decision reflects several years of challenges, including declining participation numbers, difficulties in finding enough qualified coaching staff and logistic challenges in consolidating practices and competitions,” the letter read.

According to the letter, participation in gymnastics fell from 108 to 70 athletes in the past season. Another factor in the decision was the growth in participation of other girls sports, such as wrestling, cheer and dance.

“You are just like your mom.”

I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve been told that in my life.

The thing is, I wanted to be just like her — her work ethic, charisma everyone seems to love and her ability to make anyone laugh. Ever since I was little I strived not just to impress her, but to become a carbon copy of her — she’s just that perfect.

I hate talking to people.

I actively avoid any social confrontation, always beelining for tablet kiosks in restaurants and choosing to work independently. So naturally fifth-grade-me was set on joining Harbinger — a class where writers talk to dozens of strangers a month.

Makes sense.

But before unconsciously applying to my worst nightmare, freshman-me had to fend for my life in the woods. Also known as attending J-1 class.

“What was your childhood like?” The two of th

“What was your childhood like?”

The two of them looked at each other and laughed. I wasn’t expecting the couple to be taken aback by the question, but then again, I was 11 years old.

In sixth grade, we were asked to complete a passion project where we researched a topic of our choice before applying it to our individualized projects. At the time, my only passions were concocting slime and strumming three cords on my ukulele.

So while my classmates began researching their future career aspirations or their favorite sport, I hit a dead end and couldn’t find a way to turn around.

Tate says I’m not supposed to write a senior column if I don’t have anything important to say.

What is important? Who cares? Are rhetorical questions cliché?

This is the first time I’ve been given a story entirely focused on me. Seemingly ironic, as that’s what Harbinger has taught me: to listen to myself.

It’s rare to find one of us without the other.

It’s rare to find one of us without the other.

Simultaneous nail appointments before every school dance, working the same seven-hour shifts at Kansas City Country Club three days a week every summer and a joint grad party — all thanks to four years on Harbinger together.

We became friends through shared carpools to gallery shoots — before we were trusted to drive on the highway — and sitting on the J-room floor freshman year because there weren’t enough chairs for new staffers. We were those “bungee buddies” Tate begged to split up on the field so we didn’t end up with SD cards full of identical pictures.

It wasn’t until our first Dallas summer workshop that our bungee cord snapped.

When someone asks me what my Harbinger position is

When someone asks me what my Harbinger position is I say I’m the Head Online Photo Editor. The question that always follows is, “So what do you do?”

My response: I don’t know.

The position was created by the editors last year just for me. This was the first time the photo editor position had two different categories, print and online.

After much contemplation, I’ve decided to addres

After much contemplation, I’ve decided to address something that’s been weighing on my conscience for many months.

I’d like to formally apologize to anyone I’ve offended with my opinions or editorials. I truly never meant to step on any toes with my writing.

At least that’s what I would’ve said in December, at the end of my first semester on staff.

Letting go of my fear of criticism wasn’t on my 2025 bingo card. Yet, thanks to Harbinger — and my opinions — I’ve both added and crossed it off my list.

At the end of my sophomore year I met with my Head

At the end of my sophomore year I met with my Head Photo Editors to ask if I had any chance of scoring an Assistant Photo Editor position next year.

I left with a smile on my face. I was almost certain this promotion was going to happen and I was going to achieve my biggest high school dream. The night of the Harbinger banquet I sat patiently awaiting my big moment.

I listened as my now-retired editors read off staffers’ new positions.

Being on The Harbinger means many things to me.

Being on The Harbinger means many things to me.

Just to name a few: shouting “welcome to class” over a room full of jerds excitedly flipping through the newest issue, belly laughing over episodes of “MILF Manor” at 2 a.m. with my PDFing crew, sneaking into my friends’ rooms past curfew on J-trips — sorry Tate — and holding back tears when a page has 14 links in RGB have all been core parts of my time on staff.

But one thing stands out among the rest: being on staff with my older sister Peyton.
