Attendees either camp out on-site (if they’re up for the challenge) or book an Airbnb for the weekend. If you’re an avid TikTok user, like me, you may have heard about the issue of Airbnb hosts cancelling prebooked reserva

For previous generations, it was the mall. For LA teens, it's the beach, a friend's basement or the Wednesday night youth group snack table. "My third space is not in America," says Charlotte Menadue ‘27. Hers is in Australia, coffee shops where different schools mixed, where you'd talk to people you'd never normally meet.

After years of searching, an executive director has finally been found…but who is he? With three words, Sam Houser described himself as an only child, persistent, and disciplined. He explained that growing up as an only child made him impatient but also structured because his home was disciplined. “If we want to get somewhere as an organization, or if I want to get somewhere as a person, I don’t expect the result overnight. I can persist, which is not quite the same as being

Despite a heartbreaking loss at the CIF playoffs in the first round, the boys soccer team dominated throughout an undefeated season, signaling an evolution in the school’s soccer program… The sky was reaching dusk as the referee blew on the whistle. The New Roads soccer team had defeated Wildwood School in a nail-biting match with a final score of 3-2. With 3 goals by Edgar Silva, New Roads had done what they had failed to do the year before: beat Wildwood. The New Roads soc
