Editor In Chief Sabrina Bohn shows the group of editors an idea for the week on her laptop at an editorial board meeting on Friday mornings. Bohn then edits the agenda for the week according to what the group needs to get done that weekend or the next week, by managing and overseeing the workload. "I work in class everyday–I’m a cadet teacher for Klevens, and I take CJ4–and the editorial board meets every Friday morning. I also work at home when I need to. Newspaper is a big time commitment, but since I really enjoy it, it doesn’t feel hard or even like other school work at all," Bohn said.
