My name is Jack, and I am in 8th grade. I joined journalism because I want to learn more about all the different things the subject includes. I wanted to be part of the staff so that I could interview and do photography. Outside of school, I enjoy playing baseball and doing scouts. This year, I hope to learn how to do well in journalism in the future.

A fun fact about me is that I love sports, including basketball, cross-country, football, and track. This year, I hope to learn more about journalism and how I can use it later in life.
