Weight room and varsity locker room

Coach Norton says “All varsity teams can use the locker room,” but it’s football that puts the fairly new facility to use. With a grant that approved $175,000 worth of equipment, both the varsity locker room and the weight room have been adjusted. Just recently it is the decorations that have been updated with new signs reading “mental toughness” and other inspirational quotes. Junior Melvin Flax says, “They go out their way and it makes me feel that what I do matters,” and what this does makes senior Nicolas Vang say, “It’s basically a second home.”

Jessica Raygoza’s art room

Jessica Raygoza’s art room features requested artwork done by previous students on her cabinet walls for all to see. Starting off with a graffiti door on the far left by Kei-Andre Puccetti, the collage advances to a giant ninja turtle designed by Nasi Levi and Ricky Chipirez. Lastly, the most recent and done to perfection is a Cartoon Network cartoon by current students Mara Gnoy and Seled Galvan.

Duangsawat

Thongthip Duangsawat keeps her room an inspiration to students and tells them a bit about herself, too. Keeping various souvenirs from her travels, Duangsawat also shares her “sick obsession with Manchester United” that reflects her trips down to the Harding Way Newsstand where she gathered information of their success and challenge of time when she was younger. From this obsession she traveled to England where she gathered most of her souvenirs that are revealed to the class. In constant renovation, Duangsawat adds more and more to her “tribute to England.”
