Emma Moore  Listen up, this is dire.
Walking. It’s the simplest task, yet people continue to screw it up. I know it sounds funny, that I’m making a big deal over walking in the halls, but it’s way more of an issue than one would think. For the last 3 and ½ years I’ve unfortunately been stuck in the worst school traffic, been behind the slowest students, and have gotten slammed into on numerous occasions. The most frustrating part is that kids don’t seem to realize or understand what they’re doing, why it’s bad, and how their actions affect others. I’m just trying to get to class on time and with only 4 minutes even the smallest thing can make us late. There are a few unofficial rules when it comes to walking in the school. The school is a mess when it comes to walking and I’m here to remind people of those rules. I may only have a semester left, but I want to at least try to make the issue with walking either less of an issue or none at all. Rule 1- Walk on the right side The hallway is like the road and the people are like the cars. We drive on the right and we walk on the right. Everyone who walk in one direction should all be on the same side of the hall therefore, making room for people who are walking in the opposite direction (their right) and preventing collisions. Rule 2- Don’t take up the entire hall with your friends Many friends like to walk in groups all together, but they tend to line up horizontally so they’re can all walk next to each other. Don’t do this. We get it you want to be with your friends, but if you’re all taking up that space, you’re affecting all those behind you and those walking towards you. You make it difficult to pass or break through the line, and then stop to move and make way for others. If you’re one to do this, well you can’t get mad if someone knocks into you because, you and your friends are at fault. Just walk behind each other, you aren’t missing out on anything with your friends. Rule 3- Do not walk at a speed of .0005 mph Please do not walk slow. When you’re barely walking, you’re giving everyone behind you a headache. Everyone is just trying to get to their class and you’re the one who is about to make them all late. We all walk our own speeds, but you need to be aware that there are a stream of people behind you. If you’re going to constantly walk at a slow speed you have to at least make room for people to pass you. Rule 4- Do not stop in the middle of the hall I have to be honest, this one makes no sense. There is no reason for you to come to a dead stop in the middle of the hall. There is no reason to scream and stop to talk to your friends- you can talk to them whenever you want, you can even walk and talk at the same time. When you come to a brief stop everyone behind you has to stop and find someway around you and your friends taking up the entire hall. Rule 5- No one likes hugging the corners For no reason should you be hugging the the corner, especially when you’re walking in the hall during class time. There is no one in the hall, but you decided it’s okay to hug the corner. There’s an entire hall to walk in. The worst is when you’re just walking and turn the corner and someone just ramps into you. Why would you ever do that? Rule 6- Let people merge The hallways mirror roads minus the stop signs and lights. The main staircase is the most congested area I’ve ever been in. People can’t make it to the staircase from lunch, or people decide once the lunch bell rings that you can walk down both sides of the staircase, not leaving any space for people to get up the stairs- if they’re even able to make it to the stairs. You have to squirm your way up the stairs against everyone and direction of traffic. Just let people by, we don’t want to all collide with one another. For the most part, walking is easy and plenty of students can successfully do it, but everyone has their off days. This is just a little guide to help the school run a little smoother. When you’re walking just try to remember these few unofficial rules and I promise you those short 4 minutes between classes will be better.

Kelvyn Perez  Mid term week is around the corner and this is the point that stressing out comes in handy. It is ridiculously hard to be studying while you can be on your phone or watching Bird Box like everyone else at the moment.
It takes a lot to get in a tone that allows you to study without any distractions. Here are some simple tips that literally anyone can follow to be successful at getting a good grade on your tests;
At the end of the day, if you do what you need to and stay focused, you will do great on your exams! Best of luck next week! Ajla Ahmetovic  A great way to show our WHS pride and support our school is to purchase some school apparel. Buying apparel like hoodies, sweatpants, beanies, windbreakers and long sleeved shirts is a great way to keep yourself warm during classes and especially the cold winter months.
If interested, see Mrs. Belanger in room 502 to pick up an order form. Cash and checks are accepted. All order forms are due back to Mrs. Belanger by Wednesday, Feb. 13. The proceeds will have a great benefit as they will go towards the Class of 2020!  Hannah Nardella and Alyssa Prosperi Mr. Sand is a US History, International Studies, and Current Issues teacher here at Wethersfield High School. He has been a teacher for 29 years, starting at E.O. Smith for 10 years and now has been here ever since. He went to UCONN and got his Bachelors in Science and Education and a Masters in Curriculum and Instruction. He’s been married for 23 years and has two children.
Mr. Sand is one of the few teachers at WHS who does school trips, he’s been doing them since 1995 (a very long time), over the past 24 years he’s gone on eight trips including Belize, Costa Rica, Mexico, and Greece. Usually 30 students and 4-5 chaperones attend a trip together. Out of his many trips Belize and Costa Rica have been his favorites. Next month we have the pleasure of joining him for Belize and we couldn’t be anymore excited. It’s not all sunshine and sand though, as Mr. Sand has had to deal with some hard times, for example when one of his students was terrified to do the sea trek. That’s when you put a helmet on and walk across the ocean floor. He dealt with it by having her best friend go down first to tell her she’d be ok and then Mr. Sand went to the bottom and walked along it with her. When asked why he takes the time, energy, and effort to plan and organize these trips he replied with, “I do everything for the students, my main goal is for them to enjoy their vacation but get an educational piece out of it as well. I love to give students experiences they will never forget.” Like I mentioned, earlier Alyssa and I are both attending the Belize trip coming up next month but Mr. Sand has more than just that planned for the future. He’s planning trips to Australia, New Zealand and Costa Rica as well. Sadly, he has informed us that after 24 years he will be done with the school trips and Costa Rica will be his final one. He has a former student who accompanies him to his Belize trips and has been since she graduated. We asked him what some tips would be for people planning trips for high school aged kids and he said, “Make sure you’re doing it for the kids.” Mr. Sand also left us with a funny story to share. On the way back from Costa Rica a couple of years ago, some students bought hot sauce forgetting about the 3 oz rule for planes. A student was stopped and questioned about the more than 3 oz of liquid in her bag. After some freaking out and a scare that she might not be able to fly home, everything turned out fine and the students were still able to enjoy some hot sauce! If you are interested in attending a future school trip, please go see Mr. Sand and talk to him about it! Ajla Ahmetovic  Our final year of high school will soon come to a close and the memories we’ve shared as a class will be put in one place and one place only: the yearbook. With that said, it is best to buy your yearbook now while it is still early because the price will go up as the remainder of the year goes by.

Ajla Ahmetovic and Summer Acosta  Chris Torla, Executive Chef at Trumbull Kitchen in Hartford held an assembly on December 6 from 10:45 to 11:30 in the auditorium. The purpose of the assembly was to discuss his career in business and culinary arts as a way to inspire the students who hope to become prospective chefs and business workers.
Students were able to ask personal questions to Chef Torla, giving them a one-on-one chance to talk, and an opportunity for the student to learn about their potential career. Student asked “ Have you ever been on one of those cooking shows ? ” Torla said “ No .“ Student asked “ Why? ” Torla had explained he doesn’t believe in those kind of shows. He doesn't see how they would benefit him and he thinks they have way too much drama and is more about entertainment then are about cooking. With Torla’s experience as a Managing Partner of Trumbull Kitchen, and education at The Culinary Institute of America, this was a rare and informative opportunity. One students wouldn’t forget. He hopes, he has reached out to the students about what the real world is like and the opportunities that are out there. Lejla Mustabasic  Wethersfield High School has many creative and fun electives to choose from, one of them being fashion design. This class is a good opportunity for anyone that loves to design and create their own clothing by hand. One of the many things you learn in this class is sewing, which is good for anyone who’s into fashion and creating their own clothing, or just a basic necessity to know for everyday life.
Last year in class, Ms. Leuschner set up a project for all of her students to do. After teaching them how to sew, she made it her mission to get her students to create 100 little handmade dresses and drawstring bags. These dresses and bags were sent to Haiti to all the children and women in need of clothes and bags to carry around their belongings. She organized everyone into stations. Leuschner put students in charge of each dress size, where each of the students in their stations were all responsible for their own job. For example, one would be in charge for cutting out the fabric, the next person sewed it, and the next person made sure everything was correctly done. The same thing was done for the bags. Not only did the students help people in need who don’t have the same resources we have, but they increased their sewing skills and worked together to problem solve, especially if there were any complications along the way or something was done wrong. There’s nothing bad about doing something wrong in fashion design. It’s okay because that’s what the class is there for, to learn. Currently, the students are creating their own pajama pants which Ms. Leuschner has been doing for years. I’ve witnessed kids get very frustrated during the process of this because it takes very long to do and you have to follow everything correctly step by step, or else it won’t come out right. In the end, you get a nice cozy pair of pajama pants without having to go out and spend your own money. The students are also working on making their own lanyards and eventually selling them to other students around the school. I think this is a great way to show others how fun and creative the class is, as well as giving out pretty lanyards to the students. Sydney Dillon  As midterms approach it’s good to keep in mind, that these tests are important but they are not life or death! For the seniors taking midterms at WHS it can be even more added stress because of all the other things we may have going on. The stress of applying to colleges, working jobs on top of having schoolwork, and keeping our grades up so we can graduate. Since many of us still need to take midterms, I came up with a list of ways to help survive these tests, and make life a little easier.
1. How to Really Study It’s important to study even if you think you know the material well because it helps review and keep the material fresh in your memory. However, if you push off studying till the night before the test, you’re asking for a bad time. There is a decent amount of material to cover while studying. It’s best to have time set aside to study, but break your study time into increments. You don’t have to take hours reviewing material and overwork yourself! Study for 20 minutes then take a break. 2. Get a Good Night's Sleep Yes we all know this but the impact sleep can have is truly crucial for success. There was a study that found, staying awake for 21 hours straight would give you the mental capacity of someone who is “legally drunk.” Meaning lack of sleep messes with your ability to function overall. At least 8 hours of sleep per night is enough. For example, if you wake up at 6:00 am in the morning, you could still go to bed at 10:00 pm the night before and be well rested. 3. Eat Breakfast This one is often swept under the rug because most of us don’t have time for breakfast in the morning. Even if you wake up and eat a banana quickly or some crackers, it’ll help to have something in your system. Another study has found that students who skip breakfast experience a 20-40% reduction in cognition. 4. Stay Hydrated! I’m guilty of waking up every morning and drinking coffee but it’s important to also drink plenty of water. I’m sure we’re well aware of the effects that dehydration brings. Drinking enough fluids will increase performance and make you feel more lively! 5. Don’t Overstress Midterms are only 20% of our final grade and while it is helpful to do well on them, you will still be ok if you do poorly. Trying your best is all teachers ask, and they want us to do well. If a certain class gives you trouble just do what you can and try to pass! Too much stress will affect your performance as well. Keep an open mind. I hope some of these tips were helpful, and if you’re taking exams this year best of luck! By Bryce Cox  On May 15, 1990, Richard F. Reihl, a 33 year old gay man, was robbed beaten to death by high schoolers Sean G. Burke (19) and Marcos J. Perez (17), at his Wethersfield home, an event so significant that there was a piece on it in the New York Times.
Eight years later, in Laramie Wyoming, 21 year old Matthew Shepherd was brutally beaten to death by Russel Henderson and Aaron McKinney. The death of Matthew Shepherd changed America, shaping the way communities responded to hate speech and LGBTQ rights. The impact, while great on a national level, was astronomical on the town of Laramie, just as it was on Wethersfield over twenty eight years ago. We today, being high schoolers in a generation where we haven’t witnessed the effect of these hate crimes first hand, often overlook their importance and significance. Eggnog: Is this the most holiday drink out there? How many people truly like this creamy egg drink?12/21/2018 Rachel Hall  A glass of eggnog tastes like the farthest thing from morning eggs or a warm dinner meal. Eggnog is actually said to taste like melted ice cream in a glass that's somehow hugging your throat as you drink it. Eggnog is both simple and intricate at the same time.
Traditional homemade eggnog is made of milk or cream, sugar, raw eggs, one or more alcoholic spirits, and spices, often vanilla or nutmeg and in some recipes, cloves. Some recipes call for the eggs to be separated so that the egg whites can be whipped until they are thick; this gives the drink a frothy texture. It's like fluid cream. In taste, it's much like a custard, though uncooked. As I became more curious about this festive drink, I began to ask students and staff members at Wethersfield High school how they felt about this eggy drink! Surprisingly, many have not tried this famous holiday drink. As I went around, student to student, a shocking amount told me that they've never had it. Following with something along the lines of ¨the concept freaks me out!¨ said by Ariana Bongiovanni. The fact that there are raw eggs in this creamy drink really throws a lot of people off, making them squeamish to the thought of trying it. Other people just hate it for different aspects. Such as Emma Moore who dislikes eggnog because ¨the texture is awful¨, along with the fact that she is not a fan of milk, so this milky drink is just not for her. Mrs. Daley, however hates this drink because of how it makes her stomach feel. People who are lactose intolerant avoid this creamy drink and the discomfort it causes them. Despite, the reason many people hate this drink, there are even more who love this drink such as Mrs. Haas, Mrs. Riccardi, Amayia and Roets, who just overall enjoy this sweet, thick, and creamy drink for its creamy cinnamon flavor and its versatility!

Disney’s magnificent animated adventure is one of the best films to grace humanity's eyes, yet there has always been a particular glass ceiling that has stopped it from reaching its true potential. This glass ceiling is that of teachers believing that “The Lion King shouldn’t be played in class.” This simple minded thought comes from the half-baked idea that it doesn’t relate to class. This couldn’t be more wrong.
“The Lion King” teaches very essential values that are applicable in all places, especially the classroom. Say you’re in a journalism class, “The Lion King” could help teach students how going somewhere you’re not supposed to could be dangerous for a journalist, because of when Simba and Nala went to the elephant graveyard (which is forbidden) and they got attacked by hyenas. Another excuse I hear to not watch it is “It’s just an animated ‘Hamlet’.” Now I’m just confused as to why this is a problem, “Hamlet” is a classic that gets watched in school all the time. “The Lion King” is a better version of “Hamlet” because it has more life and soul, also it has talking lions which makes everything better. “The Lion King” is one of the best films to be in theaters but it is now time for it to become one of the best films to be in classrooms. Brianna Dreger  Endlessly Developing Hearing
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to live in a world where sounds are faint or living in absolute silence? Imagine the radio is your entire world of sounds, but then it stopped working. When it’s off, what do you hear? Nothing right? That is only when the person with hearing loss is profoundly (completely) deaf. Then you have three choices: to live in a Deaf community, to get cochlear implants and still participate in the Deaf community, or live in the hearing world in its entirety. The third choice is where I stand now. Growing up, a person with hearing loss develops a stronger sense of hearing throughout time, but only slowly. A speech therapist helps a child practice her speech sounds and once she masters that sound alone, she puts them into words. “Can you say, backpack?” The speech therapist spoke. “Backback,” the child attempted to repeat. “Backpack,” “Packpack,” At first speech sounds are one of the greatest obstacles to get over; it really depends on how a person hears. With practice and continuing to develop hearing, the speech will eventually become clearer. But that is only just the beginning of a challenge that a child will go through with cochlear implants/hearing aids. All The Overlapping Sound In The World Technologies that help a person hear are only made for just that, to hear. For someone who doesn’t have a strong development through hearing will find noises overwhelming. Sounds come to the equipment from all over the place and you cannot pinpoint where the sounds are coming from. Lindsey Clark  On Saturday, December 1st, Over the span of 2 hours 40+ students at Wethersfield High School stepped up and made a difference. students worked together to package 3,000 meals.
1 in 6 people will face hunger over the holiday season. This can be a very discouraging time for anyone struggling with not enough money/food. Imagine waking up on a holiday, and having nothing to eat. How would you feel? Without a doubt being hungry at this time can ruin the holiday spirit. So why not try to lift the spirits?! That’s what these students did! Each meal had lentils, rice, veggies, and salt. All coming together to create a lentil casserole. These amazing meals packaged by students, will be handed out at soup kitchens, churches and food pantries! This was not only a moving experience but a fun and exciting time for all involved. As they listened to holiday music, each student whether they were shy or outgoing came together to create friendships like no other. Roan Moran  Wethersfield High School basketball is looking to kick off their season with their home opener against Windsor at WHS. This matchup is gonna be a good one with both teams being talented. Wethersfield coming off of a huge season, making it to the state semifinals before getting knocked out by Sacred Heart. Windsor also getting knocked out by sacred heart last year in the semi finals. This game is going to be electric. Get there early to get a seat!
Craig Elliott  Tonight, December 17 at 6:45 the boys basketball team will play Windsor. Wethersfield is 0-1 coming off a tough loss to Southington while Windsor is 1-0 after defeating Northwest Catholic. Both teams have a good history squaring off against each other. The Eagles last year made a playoff push but got eliminated by Glastonbury. They are looking to make another playoff run this year and tonight is a big game for them. Everybody go show support for the basketball team as they play one of their biggest games of the year.
Liam Flynn  The deadline to take the AP Test is coming up soon. Many students are debating whether or not to spend the $94 on March 22nd to take the test or not. Like most standardized tests, the AP test causes a lot of unnecessary stress for students.
Sometimes, the stress is worth it because colleges take the credit from that class and you don’t have to take that class in college. Sometimes the stress isn’t worth it, because colleges don’t take the credit, and want you to take that class under their curriculum. AP courses also look great on a transcript for college applications, but for seniors, the deadline to register test comes after the majority of students have already sent their applications to colleges, and many have decided what school to go to. Since seniors have typically decided where they want to go, the decision to take the test becomes easier for them, because they’ll know whether the school will take the AP credit or not. For seniors, it’s all a matter of whether the school takes the credit or not. If the college will take the credit, then seniors should absolutely take it, but if they don’t, it’s up to whether or not they want to take it. Any student in an AP class who’s not a senior, should definitely take the test, because of how good an AP class looks on a college application. As always, you can always ask your teacher or your school counselor for help if you have any questions! Arelis Herrera  Walking into Wethersfield High school freshman year was such a new experience because it was my first time attending school in Wethersfield.
On top of that I started going to Greater Hartford Academy of the Arts at the same time. I never had the typical “high school experience” and I don’t regret it one bit. I recommend going to GHAA if you are really passionate about music or any of the other departments there including dance, creative writing, musical theater, and more. I take my academic classes at Wethersfield in the morning and then take a bus to GHAA for my arts classes. Holden Hoon  As us seniors approach our last holiday break of our high school career, the energy around our lunch tables can be described as pure excitement.
We’ve been through this three times before. We have been through countless tests, quizzes, and projects. We are all ready for this week and a half off with our families and friends. Senior Kevin Rascuis said, “I am pretty tired from all the work and I am ready for a break heading into the home stretch of my senior year.” Everyone here in ready to bust out those doors at 12:12 next Friday. Luke Kelleher  The Eagles coming off a 6-4 season say goodbye to the seniors of the 2019 class and start all over again. Coach Campanello has the team back at it. These student athletes will lift every Monday, Wednesday and Friday from now until the season starts in August of 2019.
Coach Camp takes pride in making sure that his team is well conditioned and strong enough to compete with all types of competition. Wethersfield has never been the biggest football team in the state or in their conference for that matter. This is the reason why they want to take lifting so seriously, they take pride on being the stronger man on those one on one battles and being able to compete in the fourth quarter. In late February the team will also compete in a lifting competition in New Britain, something that the team has taken part of for multiple years in a row. Because of their lifting in the winter the team is normally very successful in this competition normally coming in top 10 out of the 40 teams that show up. The Wethersfield Eagles are looking forward to another winning season, they have a lot of returning seniors and the junior class is also very talented. With a lot of hard work during this off season the team will have a lot of success in this upcoming season. Conor McCarthy  When Mr. Rioux called me asking if I would be interested in being choir manager for my chorus class, I’m not gonna lie, I was fairly apprehensive at first.
The job outline seems fairly simple and in essence, it is. You have to do attendance every morning, help assign choir robes, give students music and announce songs at the choir concerts. But think about that. You have to remember 90 names, and assign 90 robes without having to mess up. You have to make sure every kid has their music and you have to go out in front of a couple hundred people at the concerts, with friends and family in attendance and announce the songs. Sometimes it's a bit nerve wracking. But I was more than glad to step up and do my part and help. While it took a bit to find my footing, it is rewarding to help out and make sure that the choir can run as smoothly as possible. Hannah Nardella  We went around asking teachers how excited they are for the Christmas Break, we put it on a scale of one-ten and asked them to pick a number indicating their excitement. Out of the sixteen teachers we asked 90% said they were excited for Christmas, and a sad bunch of grinches (10%) said they were not excited for the holiday break. When asked their favorite part of break over 50% said it was seeing their family, how sweet! Fun Fact: four teachers said they were going to be traveling during break as well.
Samantha Orpita and Morgan Pacheco  Every student who takes chorus knows that there are two days that really matter. The winter and spring concert. Kids work months and months to sound the best they can in the concerts, and for our school we never fail to impress.
The Wethersfield High School winter chorus concert took place at Wethersfield High School on December 13 at 7pm and like always everyone showed up ready to sing and leave the audience amazed. The concert started out with a performance by our school’s all girls choir who never fail to impress. Their voices sounded amazing together and the girls never failed to keep a smile on their faces the whole time, giving the audience a beautiful start for what well put together music this concert had to offer. Once the girls had finished their part of the show next up was the choralairs, the selected group of singers that could fool anyone for a professional choir. Impressing the audience more than they already were, the group sang the song they seem to be famous for We Wish You A Merry Christmas and many more. Leaving not one person shocked that this sound was coming from a group of teenagers. Kevin Rascius  The Wethersfield basketball season is upon us, one of the student bodies favorite seasons. It’s a sport we all love to watch, and after last years seniors led them to a late playoff run, we’re all excited to see what they’ll do this year.
But with only a few seniors on their roster, no one knows what to expect of this years Wethersfield Basketball team. Will this young team surprise us all and make a deep playoff run? Or fold under the pressure? Only time will tell.
The town of Wethersfield was recently informed that the two Cardio Express gyms will be closing. They will be open until December 31. All members are being automatically transferred to Planet Fitness on the Silas Deane Highway. Many students at WHS are not happy with this switch. Maddy Johnson and I went around the school interviewing senior students asking them how they feel about this. Senior Michael Manusos has been a member at Cardio for about 2 years. “Im pissed. The Silas Deane location was a nice place to go with all my friends and to work out. I would go a lot. I heard it was being “renovated” or I guess that wasn't true. They made us all go to the other one (Jordan Lane) which was even further away which was an inconvenience and they didn't have much equipment. It was a nice gym but it just didn't have enough stuff. Apparently the renovation was a lie and they're both shutting down so now I have to go to Planet Fitness (Silas Deane) or cancel all together". Senior Jake Peckrul has been a member for about a year. “I'm upset because it really was never crowded and I could get my pump in easily and quickly. Kinda got shredded not gonna lie. Now I have to go to an ugly purple and yellow gym and I don't want to see those colors while I'm working out. But whatever. It was very convenient for me but I guess I'll go to Planet.” Senior Valentino Fazio has been a member at Cardio for about two years. “I'm very mad about Cardio closing because months ago they promised me that they would be reopening the regular Cardio (Silas Deane) and renovating it but that never happened. So, I had to go to the bad Cardio in Hartford that sucks. You cant even get a good workout in and on top of that they are a bunch of criminals that made me pay for two memberships even though I could only go to one gym because the one in Wethersfield was closed. It was never going to reopen so they were just stealing my money. I am a member at Planet Fitness and I have been for two years. I can say I am not happy about these gyms closing. Planet isn't that big to begin with, so it certainly can't for people from three different gyms. I went the other day and I saw way more people than usual, and I didn't know most of them. The gym usually dies down at about eight . I was there at nine and it was very crowded. I think this will make everyone unhappy and they should put in a new gym at either of the old Cardio Express locations so Planet Fitness will be less crowded.  Rafael Valentin
Picking what team you should root for can be chosen many different ways. You can like a team because your family does, because that team was good when you were little or cause you live there. I live in the middle of both New York and Boston. For me, I like the Celtics because when I was eight I saw the Celtics win the 07-08 championship with Ray Allen, Paul Pierce, and Kevin Garnett. I went walking around my school to see what teachers and students said about who they liked and why. One of the answers I got was the Knicks and and when I asked why he said “When I was little I saw them win the 1970 and 1973 championships”. Another answer I got was the Celtics because his wife works for them. I asked some students too and they said because they also witnessed them won the '08 championship. I Found that people also the Celtics only because they were doing a lot better than the other team. There people that didn't like the sport and only went for a certain team because of friends and family. |
