Roth makes volunteering a priority Story By Maria Sanchez-Staﬀ Writer

The golden rule states, treat others as you would like to be treated. It becomes rare to find someone who does things out of sheer selflessness.

At HHS, there are those who go beyond normal measures to help their community and fellow citizens. Senior Sarah Roth has 281 hours of community service, which is the most out of all seniors. However, Roth’s volunteering was not just a senior year occurrence. “My community service started to grow my freshman year,” said Roth. According to Roth, volunteering leads to working with those who are older than you and you are able to learn from their mistakes, and choose what works best for you in your high school career. “I see it as giving back,” said Roth, “I have received

Senior drops his own beat

Story By Sasha Gubina-Copy Editor

Walking the halls of HHS, one can see athletes getting ready for their big game, choir kids practicing for the next play audition, or students studying for the upcoming math test. Every student at HHS has something to be proud of, something they are good at. Some, however, do

things which most students have never even imagined of trying, rapping for example. Landon Crosley’s passion centers around rapping, or what some call rhythmic poetry. His inspiration does not come from others, but from past experiences in his life, some tragic. Crosley’s lyrics vary from heartbreak to being shot at, things which hit at an emotional level. “I think that he makes very good rhymes and he makes awesome music,” said senior Cole Warden, Crosley’s close friend at HHS. His love for rapping and writing lyrics formed around freshman year, during a time where Crosley recalls being bullied by athletes and having few to no friends. Rapping is a way of expression for the talented senior. “I pride myself in

diversity,” said Crosley. According to Crosley, it is difficult to get his name out into the public. There are difficulties at times with marketability, because in the present day most rappers are pressured to talk about inappropriate and degrading things in their lyrics. However, Crosley tries to avoid being just another boring artist. Promoting yourself, Crosley added, takes a lot of planning, with the help of street teams (people who help promote the artist). While Crosley’s lyrics are his own, the beats to the raps are mixed with the help of his friend and producer, Johnny Juliano. Not only does Crosley rap for the students of HHS, he also owns a studio in Raymore, referred to as the “Bat Cave”. Even though Crosley’s first big performance was done at

Ruskin High School, in front of hundreds of people, in the ampitheater, he often performs at house parties. “If he keeps it up, distributing music throughout the school, then I think he’ll be very successful in his rapping career. If the word gets around, and more people start to listen to him, he will get well renown,” said Warden. From a few years of experience, Crosley had advice for the up and coming students who are trying to make something of themselves. “Humble yourself and never lose who you are,” said Crosley. This is just the beginning of Landon Crosley’s career. Maybe someday we will see his name on the top charts, and remember how this talented young man came to be a great artist.

4 THE PRIDE Teachers Say Goodbye as they prepare to leave HHS page

Goodbyes

The Pride wishes our seniors the best

SadieTo HHS faculty: “It has truly been an honor serving alongside every single one of you. Each of you has touched my life in such a remarkable way. I am a better educator because you invested in me and believed in me. I could not have asked for better mentors. Thank you for being such an incredible support system. I am going to miss you all very much.” To HHS students: “There are not words to express how blessed I have been by each of you. You bring so much joy and laughter to my life! My life is so much better because you’ve been a part of it!I have loved watching you grow into extraordinary young men and women, and I know you will do such great things with your life. Thank you for letting me be a part of your educational journey. As an educator, I know I have the absolute best job anyone could ask for. I could not have asked for a better student body with which to work for the past eight years. Thank you so much. And I guess now is time to reveal my general opinion on politics: although a moderate, I definitely lean left. Good luck in the future. Keep in touch.”

-Tina Ellsworth

I’ll miss my students past and present and the great staff I’ve worked with. I’ll remember you [all]. My students have taught me that I made the right choice when I decided to become a teacher. Working with high school students has been an education in itself; a very rewarding one. I am grateful for every day I had with them. I do not have just one favorite memory; it is a collage of all the funny things my students said and did through the years. Not a day has gone by that a student has not made me laugh at some crazy antic.

-Sue Bohnert

Never be afraid to try something new, take chances in life that is truly the only way you will grow and learn. Never allow yourself or someone else tell you can not do something, persistence and determination and hard work will ensure you can do anything you want. My students have taught me patience and to laugh a little more.

-Christine Tracy

StormiWe’re going to miss you so much. You always were the one we could run to when we needed a last minute picture, or last minute help. Your pictures were always exactly what we needed, and we knew we could count on you no matter what. You really are an amazing artist. But, besides being an amazing artist, you are an amazing person. You

always came through for us and were always excited to help. You really are a wonderful asset to the staff. Thank you for sticking it out with us this year. Let’s face it, this is one of the most stressful environments within the school, and you always managed to keep your cool. You never once got angry with anyone, or were mean to anyone. Congratulations, you and Sadie may be the only ones in this

Who are we going to direct all our Japanese based questions at? Expect several texts. You are such an amazing kind hearted person. You never have anything bad to say about anyone, and you always were willing to help out the staff. You could be the only one who truly knows what an opinion column is really based on. We may possibly be lost without you. We love that you decided to stay here all year with us, and we love that you were our Opinion Editor. Though you were “secluded” into the workroom, (though sometimes, it may have been considered a good thing...) we knew that

you would always finish everything and get everything turned in. We also knew that it would always look great. However we regret that you weren’t in here because we never fully got to know you. You are an extremely smart person, and are always wonderful to be around. How you always managed to remain quiet in this chaos ridden room is beyond all of us. You will do wonderful in whatever you decide to do in life. We’ll miss you, and we wish you the best.

room to not have. Your stories were always very interesting to read, and listen to. You always brought in a cheery face to the staff, and we loved you for it. We’re so excited to have one of our own going into the Navy. You’ll be wonderful at it. It takes a strong and amazing person to do that, and you fit that description perfectly. You really are a very interesting, amazing

person, and we will miss you greatly! We know that you’ll do great and be succesful, and we wish you the best.

Love,

Sadie Welhoff When I was in eighth grade, I planned for a quiet existence in high school. I did not really have a desire to be involved. I never thought I would be in band, newspaper, or make the friends that I did. High school has that power to suck you in, no matter how hard you resist. I would be lying if I said I didn’t have any moments at HHS I didn’t enjoy, but I’d also be lying if I said it was all perfect. Seniors have been in the same building, with the same walls, and with the same people for four years, and after four years, you are ready to leave. The only cure for senioritis is

My freshman year I was new to Harrisonville, so the friends I made in this small town, I owe to this school. These past four years, I have spent the majority of my time within these walls, learning and creating relationships with friends and teachers. I have had some of the best times of my life during high school and while I am excited to leave, I am sad to leave the people behind. To my best friend Hali Lenz, thank you for putting up with my craziness and accepting me for

graduation. Restless teenagers were just not made to last forever in high school. While I am sure there are some that will keep coming back (and never leave), I will give this advice to the non seniors to not define your life by high school. Even though I’ve been here for four years, there are still things that boggle my mind. Why do relationship matters treated like life and death situations? If all you do is complain about your boyfriend/ girlfriend, here’s a thought, break up with them. Why do we have to wait 12 minutes before going to lunch? Why do underclassmen act like prom is a right for them?

And why, for heaven’s sake, do students feel the need to stop in the middle of the hall during passing periods to have their conversations when there are hundreds of people trying to get to their classes? Those things annoy the heck out of me, and I really can’t do much about it. High school is the first taste of the real world, there are lots of things and people we just have to learn to deal with. I learned that you can make whatever you want out of your own circumstances. People with a lack of hallway etiquette did not really keep from having a decent high school experience.

Many people have asked me, “will you miss high school?” My honest answer is no. At this point, I can’t say I will miss high school, but I am grateful for it. I did not plan for four years what I was going to say in my goodbye. There are far too many people to thank and I would much rather tell them

myself. There are too many teachers that I am grateful too, and some that I could not stand. There are too many moments during high school to be summed up in one story. So goodbye HHS, we had a love-hate relationship, but I would not have wanted to be anywhere else.

for making me love Spanish, I thought I wouldn’t like it but you two made it interesting and I will miss you both dearly. To Mrs. Rhoney and Mrs. Bliss, you two were some of my favorite teachers. You two are both hilarious and I wouldn’t have survived math or science without you guys. Thank you for your patience! Mr. Lewis, Mrs. Chaney and Mrs. Bruns..... where would I be without you guys? You guys have helped me branch out creatively and grow as a person. To all the other teachers who have had me

in class thank you for helping me get through high school one step at a time. To my dear newspaper staﬀ, I wish you luck with next year’s publication and I hope you guys continue to make it great. “Tell everybody I’m on my way, I just can’t wait to be there. With blue skies ahead, yes I’m on my way and nothing but good times to share.”..... Goodbye Harrisonville High School!.

- News Editor

the weirdo I am. Julia and Vicci, I feel like I have to put you two together, thank you guys for just being you, honestly, you two are crazy and I will miss you both. Julia, lunch class isn’t the same without you and by the way, your white board art work was truly amazing. :) Vicci, I will miss the way you quote everyone in your Facebook statuses and the fact that you burp randomly, not caring who hears you, that takes some guts :P. Danielle, thank you for being the best locker partner ever! I love you Danielley! To the rest of

the senior girls at our lunch table: Madison, Micaela, Sarah S, thank you for making my day a little brighter. Haley and T.J....where do I start? College Prep Math class with you guys, always made my day. There was never a boring day with you two. Haley, I was mad at you when you ditched me in newspaper, however, I will still miss your craziness and your love aﬀair with T.J... Josh Oryall and Cody Scott, Spanish class...need I say more? I will miss you both. ˜ To Senora Millin and ˜ Senora Bohnert, thank you

6 Features THE PRIDE Seniors Consider Different Paths After High School

page

Story By Lexi Eghbali

Ever since students were little, they have been asked repeatedly: “What do you want to be when you grow up?” As the time to give a legitimate answer creeps closer and closer for high school students, seniors find themselves right in the middle of the uncertainty. Big decisions needed to be made with deadlines fast approaching, some seniors find themselves completely overwhelmed. On the contrary, others have their post high school life planned already, with a plan that meets each of their personal needs. “I’m going to college in St. Joseph, Missouri Western State University. I chose to go there because I plan on becoming a nurse and they have the nursing program that I need, I like the people, and the campus,” said senior Lauren Rynard.

Military Senior Jesse Kehoe is joining the military after high school. He is expected to attend boot camp, starting October 3, lasting for three months. “In the military, while I’m getting trained, I’m getting paid. I’m getting my food paid for and shelter, I don’t have to worry about expenses,” said Kehoe, “I see more opportunity than college. I don’t have to worry about student loans. It’s not stressful because I don’t have to apply and get accepted.”

College Rynard disagrees, stating that the military just is not right for some people. She believes that college will be fun and the best choice for her. “I want to meet new people in college and have fun. I would say the pros of going to college right after high school is you’ll graduate usually within four years so by the time I’m 21 I should be out of college, so I won’t be going too long and I should be able to get a job over someone without a degree,” said Rynard.

Work Others are in no hurry, and are considering opening their options to allow a little more time in their schedule. “I was going to take a year off but changed my mind,” said senior Kayla Davis, “There’s been a lot of stuff going on this year that’s made things hard and I started thinking about not going to college because I wasn’t sure if it was right for me and not just a waste of money, but friends changed my mind.” A few seniors this year have decided to go straight into the work environment

after they graduate. Majority has decided to attend college. “I chose to go to college right out of high school instead of working, because if you graduate college with a degree more than likely you will get a better, high paying job and also if you just work right after high school more than likely you won’t want to go back to school,” said Rynard. Whatever the case may be, in the long run, each senior must make this important choice for themselves, keeping an open mind and considering every option.

Kirby Cannon- Not failing math. Kyle Livingston- I wish I was smarter about things. Jasen Mcgee- How small my arms are. Cassie Phelps- Be a cheerleader. Jamie Young- Choose blow-oﬀ classes. Zach Wright- Be in a play. Jessica Williams- More active, work harder, get the grades I know I could have achieved. Danielle Ward- My friend choice. Micaela Vaccaro- I would have been more involved my first two years. Logan Thompson- I would have taken French and Spanish. Tiffany Sujkowski- Play tennis senior year. Kellsie Smith- To take at least four more classes with Mark Rorvig. Stephanie Smith- How apathetic I was towards life. Arthur Sewell- Be more outgoing

Class of 2012 prepares for their senior year

page

Story By Melissa Hicks - Features Editor

Class of 2012 is coming up in a year, and while 2011 seniors have their plans already figured out, it is now time for 2012 seniors to prepare for their future. Preparing for senior year, basically, means preparing for life after high school. While most students plan to attend a college, some may decide to go into the working field or military. For students who plan to attend college, or undecided, one frightening test will become your best friend during your senior year, the ACT Test. The best way to prepare for the ACT is checking out the ACT Prep items at the Library Media Center. The LMC has it all; from ACT flashcards, to ACT practice tests. When signing up for the ACT, check into the ACT Prep that occurs the week of the test date. 2011-2012 ACT testing dates: September 10, 2011; October 22, 2011; December 10, 2011; February 11, 2012; April 14, 2012; June 9, 2012.

When deciding on a date to test, check actstudent.org to find out when the sign-ups end. A late fee will occur if the sign-up deadline is missed. Keep colleges in mind when preparing for the ACT. Most collegesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; requirements have a minimum ACT score, if not, the ACT score and class rank is the judging factor. University of Missouri- Columbia requires a 24, Northwest Missouri State University requires a 21, Missouri State University requires a 24, and Missouri Western State University requires a 21. College is expensive, so when thinking about the ACT, keep in mind that if you score a 31 or higher, you may receive a scholarship from the Bright Flight Program. Scholarships are a great thing to look into when considering a college. About every college website has a scholarship section. It is possible to earn scholarship money even when it is not

through the college. Fastweb.com recommends scholarships that best fit your personal profile. The next step for the college path is making an appointment for a college visit. College visits help you decide whether or not the college is best for you. It provides a campus tour, a sneak-

peak to college life, and a time to ask any questions you may have. Harrisonville High School provides two excused absences for two college visits, senior year. It is time to take advantage of those absences, to help decide your future plans for college.
