On June 14 Reedley High School’s class of 2013 graduated! I was thrilled to watch my son Joseph Ham graduate and would also like to congratulate the rest of the class of 2013. Two of KRL’s young writers share below their graduation day!

My final prom took place on April 27 at the Grand Hotel in Fresno. This years’ prom saw one of the greatest ticket sales in RHS history (over 500). The theme was Lucky 13 and the luxurious hotel was decorated with red and black and included a comfortable upstairs region with poker tables and photographs. The dance floor was crowded, exactly as it should be! I was nominated for prom king and I was crowned king alongside my close friend Avery Perez! We danced a lovely dance serenaded by Joseph Ham singing a Sinatra song, and the 500 plus students seemed completely satisfied. Mission accomplished.

If I thought January, February, and March were bad, April is even crazier! As of now, West Side Story is over, Yearbook is over, and I have more free time after school. You would think that I would have all the time in the world right? WRONG!

It has been a sigh of relief to know that February is done. I blinked, and now it is March! Blossoms are blooming, the weather is warming (sometimes), and my allergies are driving me nuts! Seriously, there needs to be just one pill that protects people from sinus headaches, coughing, fever, achiness, drowsiness, etc. I think there may be one but I hear its illegal in most states…

You think that people would have had enough with silly love songs. But I look around me and I see…that they have indeed had enough! It’s not like I’m bitter about Valentine’s Day, it’s just that my plans will include sweat pants, Ben and Jerry’s chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream, and every Ryan Gosling movie ever created. Oh, and a lot of singing.

I enjoy seeing all the Facebook posts and pictures on Instagram of people having fun over Christmas break almost as much as I hate the fact that I didn’t do much over Christmas break. Those of you that know me know my family. Those of you who know my family are fully aware of our many…shall we say mishaps?

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, and by that I mean it’s slightly cooler than normal and they’re playing Christmas remixes on the radio all the time. I’ve always wanted a white holiday season. Looks like that wish will never come true…

As the Friday night lights dim and the curtain falls, we now enter what I call the “dry stage”. This phenomena occurs when there are no sports to watch, no performing arts events to attend, and no activities. Nothing fun or exciting to do….but Christmas is fast approaching.

Finally! The most stressful week of the student council year is over. Homecoming week 2012 was definitely a highlight of my senior year, I hope the feeling was likewise for other students at RHS.

Change is among us at Reedley High School. Upperclassmen entered the parking lot on August 27, 2012 to discover an unprecedented tragedy: Ms. K is no longer with us. The Anglo-Saxon community at RHS briefly mourned her absence that Monday morning. Luckily, she is happy at her job at Reedley College, chasing the same kind of kids, just bigger and older. We wish her the best.

Matilda is a friendly, feisty furry ninja who loves to play and who is brimming with energy and personality who is 1 year old! She was found at the intersection of a busy road and the freeway and was scooped up by a Good Samaritan! She greets you with cute little meows and she loves to cuddle once she’d finished playing. She’s been fostered with other cats and she like to be the center of attention. Matilda is available from the Cat House on the Kings.
