Senior support: As freshman acclimate, seniors answer their questions
Toward the beginning of the school year, freshmen are flooded with an overwhelming amount of new things. They only ask for one thing: answers. Some freshmen are unsure of whom to turn to with these questions. Luckily, that is where OH seniors can step in. Two in particular supported the responses to frequent-freshman questions: OH seniors Olivia Krupinski and Jwirya Abouhiba. Specifically, OH freshman Autumn Moe wondered a common question posed by her fellow new Panthers: what is the high school workload is like? Krupinski, who has earned a 4.0 GPA, said that the workload is dependent on how you handle it, and “if you do not do your homework, [[or]] if you hold it off for so long, you're gonna have a bigger workload.”
More than just a sport: The rise of girls’ flag football
The OH flag football team is celebrating a lot of firsts this fall: first season, first goals, and first win. For Coach Abigail Jambor, this is a sweet start to what was a long process. Jambor explained how desperate she was for it to become a sport because Oswego is one of the last schools in the community to do so, as it is still not a nationwide initiative. Oswego is in a new era, because the process to get a sport verified is very extensive. Jambor described this process as time-consuming. “I don't know if you've ever attended a board meeting,” she said with a pained expression. “[[T]]hey're very long. You wait three to four hours to present seven minutes of your proposal, and then you wait another month to find out, and then another month, and then another.”
