Letter from the Editors Having each served on staff the last three years, we have experienced an abundance of change. In recent years The Booster has undergone a new paper format, a new adviser, a new printer, and an ever-revolving door of staff members. However, despite all of the change, one thing has remained true for us as staff members and now as co-editorsin-chief: we are committed to producing a newspaper that our school and community is proud of.
We have worked diligently to inform our student body as well as celebrate the achievements and accomplishments of our students, staff, school and community. To conclude our final issue of the 2019-2020 school year and our last issue on staff, we would like to extend a sincerest thank you to all of our readers. We appreciate the support and cooperation we have received from the students and staff at SHS. It has been an honor to cover your
