HELLO SPARTANS, Your favorite editors-in-chief, Beatrice and Garrett, here with the the final (regular) issue of the year! We’ll save all the sappy stuff for the senior issue coming out next month, so you don’t need to grab your box of tissues quite yet. We hope you all had a great prom and good BEATRICE luck on the rest of your AP tests! We have a fan- NAUJALYTE tastic final issue for you. Our personal favorite part of the issue is the April comics. That’s right, there’s two of them this month! Also make sure to checkout our Endgame review (no spoilers!), get your questions answered by the lovely senior Megan Li, and pick out a social justice book to read over the summer.
Make sure to stop and smell the May flowers! GARRETT KENNEDY
