The CHS Literary Magazine was released May 13. It consists of artwork and literature and is completely student produced. This year’s main theme for the magazine is Anatomy. Students can buy the magazine in Mrs. Nixon’s room, room 227. The magazine is $40 this year. “There is a lot of talent showcased and the theme provides for some really cool spreads and a lot of artwork that’s a little spooky but also intricate and well-done,” senior Editor-In-Chief Sofie Ascher said.

HMS teacher published Hoover Middle School teacher Grant Goodman recently released his book Agency Darcy and Ninja Steve in Tiger Trouble. The book is about a ninja named Steve and a secret agent in-training named Darcy. When Darcy gets sent on a mission to Steve’s ninja village, they team up to chase down an ancient ghost. “I’m currently working on the second Agent Darcy and Ninja Steve novel,” Goodman said. “It’s called Robot Rumble, and it’ll be out this winter. I hope it will inspire some of my students to try their hands at writing their own short stories and novels.”
