June 13, 2022 Nobody anticipates moving to a new school district their senior year, but I wouldn’t change a thing about my journey. Kearny High School and LHS will forever be my homes.  The lessons I’ve learned, the tears I’ve shed and the long nights I’ve spe... More »

June 24, 2021 Some people tend to overlook the power of a voice. Whether it’s typed, written on paper or spoken aloud, self-expression truly gives every person a chance to stand out. I came to this realization as a result of my work in the journalism program. ... More »

June 24, 2021 I had no idea what to expect when I moved to Lyndhurst my junior year. On the first day of school, I received my schedule, arrived late to class after getting lost in the halls and grieved about not having my friends with me. My original schedule... More »

June 24, 2021 I have learned so much these past three years at The Lighthouse that have shaped me as a writer and given me a passion for journalism. There are so many people I could thank and numerous journalism stories I could tell, but I will try to be brief... More »
