“This is my 15th year teaching at Fenton. Some of my favorite memories are field trips because I just like how I get to see kids outside of the classroom. I’ve been here 15 years now so its kind of hard to remember not being part of the Fenton community but people I work with and students at some point too, they become family. And now my kids go to Fenton schools so I guess I’m just part of Fenton now, or Fenton is a part of me. One thing I’ve learned is if you want to do something just do it, dont wait for a different day, because you might not have it.” –Publications Adviser Bethany Hoover

“My favorite part about high school is the memories that I was able to make with the people I love. There were countless laughs and just messing around and having a good time. I learned what it was like not being alone and was always content with the little things. Two of my favorite memories are Cedar Point with my girlfriend and going up north with my friends for a couple days.” - senior Trip Duma

“Something I love about high school so far is that I get to hang out with new people and I have more opportunities with sports and things I’m good at. I’m in cross country and track and I have been participating in them for three years. I am good at art and math because I love being creative and going above and beyond and seeing what I can do. I am not currently taking art, but I am planning to after I am done with Spanish.” - freshman Hannah Whitt

“My biggest fear is letting down the people around me— especially my parents— because they have given me so much and I feel like it would be a waste to not do anything with the opportunities I have. It makes me work harder, especially in school with my advanced classes. I’m currently doing IB English, IB Biology, IB History and AP Government. I did honors (History and English) freshman year and I did AMS sophomore year. My favorite memory for both years was the big presentation at the end of the year. It ended up being really fun because groups brought in costumes and when we weren’t presenting, everyone had food so it was very interactive; I feel like it was a good way to end both years.” - junior Sylvia Kline

“One of my core values of life is being kind to everyone and talking to everyone. God showed his love for us and I’m trying to imitate him and show love to people. I feel you get better results when youre kind and people respond in a good way and you have respect. You always want to keep your reputation in the forefront of your mind so when you are approached, people respond favorably. Sometimes we have to understand that people are having good days, middle days, and bad days and you never know when you can help somebody. It makes a more pleasant life experience when you’re kind and people go out of their way to show the best version of themselves” - custodian Dave Van Vilan

“My best memories are from the school dances because its so different than actual classes but youre just with everyone you dont really talk to but it doesn’t really matter whos next to you, and youre just having fun. Advice I would give to the underclassmen is if you do care about your grades, it starts from your freshman year. If you really want a good GPA, you really have to work for it starting when you get into high school. My freshman year I had a lower 3.5 and has affected my GPA to now, so I wish I wouldve done better my freshman year.” - senior Madison Starr

“I am passionate about my hobbies, my friends and family, basketball and track. I really like basketball because its really enjoyable. Ive always played it for seven years and I think Im pretty good at it, and I really want to go into the NBA. My mom and my dad are huge supporters of me. My favorite game was when we played against Corunna, they were pretty tough but we came out with the win. I love being with the team, theyre all like my family.” -freshman Jake Huntoon

“I have been on the newspaper staff for all four years of high school. It was fun doing it all four years because I had a group of people that I could go through high school with the entire time and I had a safe place in Mrs. Hoover’s room. In my freshman year, my editor in chiefs were really great and they took me under their wings and helped me out with stories. I really enjoyed bonding with them. Advice for incoming freshmen who want to be a part of the staff is come in with an open mind and be ready to learn a lot, because writing for a newspaper is different from writing for an English class. Youre really going to have to dig for the information and just learn how to talk to people,” - senior Angelina Vitarelli

“I love painting, its one of my favorite things to do. I really fell in love with it in seventh grade when we had to do it in art class. One of my favorite things to paint is sunsets or oceans. Painting makes me feel peaceful inside, its the thing I do when I need to calm down or want to relax.” - freshman Elizabeth Sloan

“I like being a teacher a lot. It’s always a pleasure to see everyone grow throughout the year. My students have not just grown physically but also have grown mature-wise, I like being able to see everyone just grow into better people throughout the year. I believe that I will still continue to be a teacher, the only thing I can foresee myself doing differently is being in some sort of administrative role, but I also see myself staying in physical science or physics and continuing to build that program. I really want to see people succeed in their sciences because a lot of people think science is really hard, but I think from an outside perspective, science is also fun, and it is something you can enjoy and something that’s not just learning the content, its a process of being able to think.” - Physical science teacher Nicholaus Jeffrey

“My mom is my hero because shes always been there, she always gives me good advice when I’m stumped in life and she always brings the positive out of the negative. If I didn’t have her in my life I’d be confused and lost. I think people should look up to their moms because they sacrifice a lot to try and give their kids a good life and its not always easy.” - freshman Luke Rittenger

“One of my biggest strengths is organization, because I like things to be organized and when they are not organized, I feel chaotic and I feel like everythings out of hand. It gives me a sense of accomplishment and peace inside and I like to stay on top of my chaos. Being organized helps me with school and turning my assignments in on time, and I recommend being organized to anyone who is struggling with school, it will help a lot.” - freshman Kalena Chandler.

“If I died tomorrow, I would be remembered as a friend, a daughter and a sister. I devote time to my friends, family and sometimes I’m there for them. I’m not selfish when it comes to what I want to do or what my friends and family want to do. I think that a lot of people will remember me as the person who was there.” - freshman Taryn Craven

I’ve been playing basketball for four to five years now, I’ve been playing tennis since I was three or four and I just started track last year. My favorite sport of all time is probably tennis, because I’ve been doing that for the longest and I’ve always loved that sport” - freshman Rayn Rutley
