“We just started playing together for fun because we’re all very good friends.”
by Caytie Siegl Since 1973, the Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition has been drawing in elite musicians for a three-day competition. The result is a naming of the top ensemble in each of the three categories – string, wind and junior (18 years of age and younger). This year, two Ashland High School students will compete in the world’s largest chamber music competition. Ashley Hoe, senior, and Chas Barnard, junior, will travel to the University of Notre Dame to compete at the DeBartolo Performing Arts Center with Eleanor Schaer as the Schoenard Trio – the name being a compilation of their last names – in the junior division. Hoe will play piano, Barnard the cello and Schaer the violin. The students sent in a DVD of themselves playing to the Fischoff National Chamber Music Association in January and were invited to play to compete in the next three rounds of the competition. On May 11, the trio will begin playing in the remaining rounds.
“What really makes us unique is that unlike other youth chamber groups, we’re three best friends…we’re competing against all of these young chamber groups that were pre-formed in their Juilliard Pre-college programs and such. When it comes down to it, all that matters is that we have fun in the process and during the performance. I’m sure no matter what the result, we’ll be proud of ourselves and it’ll be an amazing experience,” Hoe says of what gives her group an edge on the competition.

Should the trio win the junior division competition, they will perform on “From the Top,” an hour-long weekly radio show, as well as winning a $2,000 cash prize. For now, they are practicing daily with twiceweekly coached practices from Hoe’s piano teacher and Barnard’s cello teacher – Cynthia and Tom Stauffer.

AHS spring play a tale of adventure and dreamland fantasy.
by Amelia Farber Ashland High School Theater Department is delving into a vibrant and fantastical production complete with masks and shadow puppetry. This year’s spring show will be “Haroun and the Sea of Stories,” a whimsical show of playful language, bright colors and moral questions. “Haroun is so different from any other play I have ever been in, mostly attributed to the fact that it incorporates masks and shadow puppetry,” freshman Aubyn Heglie says of the show. Heglie will be appearing as the lead, Haroun, with junior Drew Starmer playing Rashid. The show is directed by Jamie Peck, a company member at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, and a master of masks and movement. Senior Aurelia Grierson has chosen to be the Assistant Director for her senior project. The show, written by Indian-born British playwright Salman Rushdie, is set in a dream world. The play has similarities

If you’re a teenager at Ashland High School and are needing hygiene or food supplies, the Health Center has everything you need and more. Judy Blickenstaff has stocked a cupboard to the brim with items such as toothbrushes, deodorant, crackers and fruit snacks to help homeless or needy teens when they need it most. “It’s for those kids who are couch-hopping and don’t have some of the basic necessities we use everyday,” she explained. The supply is open to any student anytime the Health Center is open and runs on donations from community members. “All the stuff in there came from parents,” Blickenstaff said. The cupboard was created by the Kiwanis Club of Ashland.

Brain Bowl team climbs their way into social relevance with victory On April 10, the Ashland High School Brain Bowl team took the championship title out from under the feet of reining champion, the North Medford Black Tornadoes. At the beginning of the year, there was no brain bowl team and that didn’t seem likely to change. Eventually a group of intelligent students teamed up with Bill Gabriel and Mathew McKinnon and started practicing every Thursday. Despite the team’s small size, they qualified for the championship. At the championship, the team was forced to face defending champion North Medford, the clear favorite. After starting off with a 13 point deficit, Ashland fought back and cruised to a 43-30 win. “I am really proud of the team for coming together to beat North,” captain Zach Markovich said. The other members of the team were Elias Opgenorth, Carl Gorbett, Misha Boldt, Michael Skidmore, Ian Wurfl and Dylan Schink.
to traditional Indian theater, as it incorporates dual-personalities, colorful costumes and shadow puppetry to illustrate fantastical scenes and concepts. The cast is small – only 21 performers – but many of them play more than one role. “I’m definitely very excited!” Heglie enthuses. “Haroun” plays eight performances with a special $5 preview on Wednesday, March 4. “Haroun” will run Thursday through Saturday, May 5-7 and May 12-14 with one Sunday matinee at 2 p.m. on May 15. Tickets may be purchased online, in downtown Ashland and at the door. All tickets are available now at www.showtix4u. com. General tickets are $10 and students under 18/seniors over 65 tickets are $5 Reserved seating is available for $15. General and student/senior tickets will be available after April 18 in downtown Ashland at Paddington Station, Tree House Books and Music Coop.
On Friday, April 29, Ashland High School will experience a rush of upcoming musical talent at the annual Battle of the Bands competition. The showdown will take place at 8 p.m. in the Lincoln School gym. AHS students will have the pleasure of attending the event and giving a suggested donation of $3. Any money raised will go to the Red Cross in support of those affected by the earthquake and tsunami in Japan.
BANDS There are no auditions, and only one band will be crowned the winner. Several bands will participate in the competition, including: Ego Death, Random Sound, Jonah & Friends, Turpentine, Coco-Company, Rooster Coghorn and Random Tangent. The occasion is put on by AHS senior Coco Amarotico and the AHS leadership class. “It’s going to be awesome,” he raved. From the looks of it, Battle of the Bands will certainly live up to its expectations.

Nearing the end of a school year is never considered a simple feat. With homework and tests stacking up from the plethora of classes you’ve chosen to take, it’s no wonder that some of us begin to slip into a bit of a trance. Having already been at Ashland High School for four years, the senior class will soon pack up and move out to begin our rugged paths towards excellence. Ask any of us now and we will tell you that AHS has fully prepared us to take on the world, and that we are itching to do so.
As seniors, we feel it is necessary to pass the torch on to the class of 2012 in the hopes that they will be as confident and prepared as we are. However, this task is no longer within our control as the top dogs of the school; it is up to every single student to willingly cooperate with each teacher they may encounter and to strive to meet the standards that the high school has always held in high regard. It is with these standards that AHS has ensured each student’s individual success, and it will be with these standards that you will all succeed.
Shall We Dance?

and sophomores experience this? Yes, I know a small percentage of that group of people gets invited by some desperate junior or senior, but they do not have the right to display their independence and buy their own ticket to get into the dance. I am disappointed in Ashland High School. We take so much pride in our acceptance of the student body, yet blatantly discriminate against a targeted group of people by robbing them of the potentially greatest experience of their lives. As a personal anecdote, I remember my freshman year. I had to crush the dreams of one of my classmates, who asked me to prom, by informing him of our restriction from the event. So, to all of you clueless freshmen: no, you are not allowed to buy a ticket to prom and yes, I feel your pain.

the hard work of the upperclass, then the socialists have finally won. Some people say that I am prejudiced because I was never asked to prom by a pretty senior, or because I’ve never been asked to a dance of any kind, or because everyone I’ve asked has turned me down. Those people are terrorists. I criticize this policy for what it will end up justifying. If we allow freshman and sophomores as prom dates, where does it end? Who’s to say a junior can’t take a middle schooler to prom? Or take three dates? Or date a horse? To be perfectly honest, I’m not so sure about having juniors and seniors together at prom either. Now I’m not saying juniors can’t have a dance, just not one with seniors. Juniors should get their own event, one that is separate from but equal to the real prom. We must rigorously defend the tradition of prom. Unless we keep the undercastes in their place, our society will fall into chaos, and the senior class will have to live at the bottom of the social ladder-- with the rats and the excrement.

THE 411 ON PROM: Who: juniors and seniors (underclassman may accompany as dates) When: May 7, 2011 from 8 p.m-11:30p.m Where: Ashland Armory Theme: Alice in Wonderland
The hair, the make-up, the nails: To do it yourself or to get it done, that is the question. If you like being in control of your look getting together with friends and making an evening of doing everything yourself is a good choice. An easier route is dropping some cash at a salon and letting yourself be pampered, if you have something specific in mind, bring a picture so you’re sure it will turn out as planned.
The Corsage: Gentlemen: Corsages are sweet and can be beautiful, but remember two things when at the flower shop: Less is more (too big and our hands don’t function). Also, make sure it matches, no clashing with the girl’s dressses.
Shoe choice:
“Prom is a night where I can become of high society and get away with dressing like Serena van der Woodsen.” - Alison Claypool
Whether you go with flats on the ground, or add an inch to your step with heels, shoes complete your wonderland attire. Matching shoes to the dress or using a complimentary color are things to consider. Once at the dance we advise for you to please take off your shoes. Nobody appreciates a stilleto to the toe. For a more formal look make sure your shoes match the occasion. If you are to wear open toed shoes, ladies, please, paint your toenails.
LONG V. SHORT DRESS Things to have in mind while dress shopping; where are you going to dinner? Are you really going to spend that much on a dress you will only wear once or twice? Remember that depending on your dress length, it could be stepped on or show a little too much skin. Photo by Anja Harriss

How to POP the question Spontaneity is a everything. If she’s really special add a little romance. Be original. Don’t ask a stranger who you’ve only talked to once. That girl you’ve kept tabs on when you walk on the quad is a negatory. Asking your friends to help you will make it more impressive and ensures nothing will go wrong.
THE TIE: Bowties are more often paired with tuxedos; neckties usually go along with a suit but you are free to mix and match with your date. Ties are perfect for matching or expressing your style.
The boutonniere Ladies: word on the street is boys aren’t big fans of the pinned flowers. whether this is the case or not, it is common courtesy to get them a boutonniere (especially if they are getting a corsage for you).
REMEMBER:NEW DANCE RULES
Tux V. Suit Tuxedos are much more formal, but they come with a heafty price tag. Suits are more fit for casual ocasions but paired with the right vest or dress shirt can keep it classy.
• No overtly sexually explicit dancing • Regular school dress code will be enforced (strapless dresses will be allowed • No inappropriate touching
“Be Unique. Dress your best, swag past the rest.” -T.J. Murphy Information provided by Anya Ludwig, Megan Ganim and Anja Harriss.
• No hands on the floor/ both feet on the floor. • Edited playlists so that there are three second breaks between each song, This will provide time for people to “escape” from their partner
Leadership teacher Reed Sorenson speaks on the occasion of new dance rules:

“We are the last school in the valley to get on board with a new dance policy against grinding. All other schools in the valley have forbid grinding. We understand that it’s how your generation dances. We have tried to work with students to come up with a policy so that we may “meet in the middle.”- Mr. Sorenson

by Elle Swarttouw Life is full of those compulsory tasks, brushing teeth, sending thank-you cards and for those of us who are college bound, standardized testing. Think of them like a tooth-ache in the big picture of the high school experience. The ACT and SAT are like a game into the transition to higher education. Get good grades, high scores on standardized tests, a nice stack of extracurriculars and you’re three-quarters of the way towards being an ideal college applicant. The remaining onefourth is the little bit of heart n’ soul you may have left after 12 years of school all day and homework ‘til dawn. No matter how you look at it, standardized testing is just one more arbitrary tool to get what you want out of life. Study hard and you will build character and develop life skills.

Annihilating the ACT Slaughtering the SAT by Elle Swarttouw
by Sofía Harrison When it comes time for juniors and seniors to begin preparing for college most everyone takes the SAT. What you may not know is that there is another standardized test out there: American College Testing Assessment (ACT). Both of these tests are nationally administered standardized tests that help colleges evaluate where a student stands academically. Most colleges accept either one or both. However, there are some major differences between the SAT and the ACT; choosing the right test for you can have great benefits. The 2 hour and 55 minute, ACT is more of a curriculum-based test while the SAT is more focused on reasoning and problem solving. Unlike the three sec-
Class of 2010 English
tions of the SAT, the ACT contains up to four sections. English, Math, Reading and Science with an optional writing test. The test is composed of 215 questions: 75 English, 60 math, 40 reading and 40 science. The four multiple choice areas are scored from 1 to 36, while the writing is scored from 2 to 12. The ACT is also slightly less expensive than the SAT. The test costs $33 without the optional writing test and $48 including the writing test. Another benefit of the ACT is that there is no deduction for having the wrong answer. The test follows grade scaffolding that converts the number of correct answers to a test score. Check actstudent.org for more information.
in any order. In addition to the general exam, there are 20 SAT Subject Tests (SAT II) to choose from, ranging from Chinese to U.S. History. Subject tests are sent to colleges and reflect a student’s strength in a particular area of study. The SAT Reasoning test costs $47 and the Subject Tests have a base fee of $21. Additional costs are added depending on the subject. The majority of colleges in the United States take SAT scores into heavy consideration when making admission decisions.

AHS athletics needs continuity in their logos
runs by the Grizzlies varsity baseball squad this season so far.
by Rogue News Sports Staff
A school’s mascot and logo promote one of the most important aspects of high school sports— school spirit. At Ashland High School, many of the teams have introduced their own unique logos. Although individuality is certainly preached, accepted and promoted at AHS, there should be continuity in the symbols that represent AHS sports teams. In order to establish unity and tradition, all sports teams need to employ the same logos. Instead of an alternative ‘A,’ baseball hats should use The snowboard team’s logo is the face of grizzly bear that was created by Jess the one that can be seen on an AHS letterman Gleasman. jacket, a symbol that is synonymous with AHS varsity sports. All other programs at the school need to keep it simple; avoid pictures of bears and stick to the Grizzly paw that can be seen on football helmets and “Go Grizz” signs throughout the town. To reach Ashland High School’s full potential for school spirit and sports fanaticism, Grizz sports teams must collectively ditch their individual logos in favor of the iconic images that define AHS sports with the classic The baseball team has creatively developed ‘A’ and Grizzly paw logos. a new age ‘A’ that appears on their hats and shirts.
