The CHIEF May 2026

BYE BYE TO THE THE CHIEF

AS MY SENIOR YEAR IS WRAPPING UP, I FIND MYSELF REFLECTING ON THE PAST FOUR YEARS. THE LEADERSHIP POSITIONS I HAVE BEEN IN AND THE SERVICE I HAVE DONE HAVE BEEN THE PILLARS OF MY HIGH SCHOOL EXPERIENCE, TEACHING ME SO MANY VALUABLE SKILLS AND PROVIDING ME WITH GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES. WHEN I JOINED THE CHIEF JUNIOR YEAR, I WAS LOOKING FOR A CREATIVE OUTLET, ESPECIALLY ONE THAT INVOLVED WRITING. I LOVED THAT I WAS ABLE TO WRITE ABOUT MY INTERESTS, AND EVEN CREATE NEW ARTICLE TOPICS! WHEN I WAS APPROACHED WITH THE IDEA OF BEING THE EDITOR, IT MADE ME PRETTY NERVOUS. AS I STEPPED INTO THE POSITION MY SENIOR YEAR, I BEGAN HAVING A BLAST! BEING EDITOR-IN-CHIEF HAS TAUGHT ME COMMUNICATION SKILLS AND THE IMPORTANCE OF ORGANIZATION. I LEARNED THAT I TRULY DO LOVE TO WRITE AS A CREATIVE EXPRESSION, AND I WOULD ENJOY CONTINUING TO BE INVOLVED IN SOMETHING SIMILAR IN COLLEGE. I FEEL VERY FORTUNATE TO HAVE HAD WRITERS THAT COME TO ME WITH NEW IDEAS AND ALSO ARE WILLING AND HAPPY TO BRING SOME OF MY WRITING IDEAS TO LIFE! I AM VERY CONFIDENT THAT REESE WEHRI WILL DO AN AMAZING JOB AS EDITOR NEXT SCHOOL YEAR. IF YOU ARE THINKING OF WRITING FOR THE CHIEF , DO IT! THANK YOU DR. SOARES AND MR. BLAIR FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY, I HAVE LEARNED SO MUCH!

SINCERELY, MYLEY REMKUS, EDITOR-IN-CHIEF
