Letter from the Co-Editors-in-Chief Trends have always been around. From the beginning of time, people have been influenced by others. In 2020, trends have soared to new heights. Since COVID-19, people have been coming up with new ways to connect with others and follow trends. Even the way masks look has become a trend. Many ponder if they should follow these trends or not. Some do it just to fit in. Others do it just for themselves. Whether or not we all wear the same clothes or play the same games, we all have different personalities. No matter if one follows trends or not, it is important to stay true to oneself. It is important to stay different, to stay unique. Throughout this issue, The Booster staff discuss many trends that are being followed at this point in time. From
Opinion
shoes to video games, following trends are at a high. All The Booster asks is to stay unique — to stay yourself. We would like to ask our readers for suggestions in the content you would like to see. We value our readers’ opinions and would like to say that any given input is valuable to our staff. For anyone wanting to suggest ideas, feel free to contact us at our email at booster@scsd2. k12.in.us or through social media. Sincerely, Isabela Diaz & Abby Doriot
