Hello, My name is Zyaire, I am a junior. This is my second year in journalism and I am happy to be back. I have wanted to be a writer since I started school, and this class is getting me closer to that goal. This school year, I am joining two clubs, Mock Trial and Science Olympiad. I would love to travel, live life to the fullest, and do all I can to succeed.
