Letter from the editor

Dear Class of 2023, We’ve finally made it! This is officially the end of our high school journey, and it’s crazy to think about how far we’ve come. The memories we’ve made and the growth we’ve experienced throughout these years have truly shaped us into the people we are today. We have braved a pandemic, construction and one too many instances of freak California weather. All of these things have instilled in us patience, adaptability and persistence.

But not everything during our time here has been a challenge to overcome. In this issue, I hope we’ve captured some of the best snapshots of our time in high school. I hope that reading through this magazine will leave you with a sense of pride for your fellow classmates, joy from our collective favorite experiences and laughter at our Gunn confessions.

Lastly, I hope this issue inspires in you a sense of confidence for the future. We’ve worked so hard to get here and accomplished so much. You’ve earned this, and despite the obstacles or detours that may have popped up along the way, we made it in the end—and that’s what matters.

Here’s to making new memories, Katie Shih, EIC ‘22-’23
