Fashion Bash

Junior Martial Delrosario styles a short, black dress at Carlynton’s second annual Fashion Bash. 
On the 29th of February, Carlynton held its second annual Fashion Bash. The Fashion Bash had dual purposes- to raise funds for Prom, and to showcase various styles one might choose to wear to prom. It was held from seven to nine in the Shop. The main event was the fashion show, where for a total of about 30 minutes 44 dresses and nine suits were modelled. In addition, some girls modelled hair styles with more casual dresses. This served to advertise Dani's Hair Loft.

Many of the dresses modelled were donated, but seven were rented from David’s Bridal. The suits modelled came from Men’s Warehouse. Jewelry, made by Paparazzi Independent Consultant, nails from Color Street, and flowers from Bella Flora Shoppe were also shown. 

The emcees of the evening were Alaiyah Burks, Erin Fox, and Savannah Sevacko. They described the styles of the evening. After the fashion show portion, a silent auction was held where attendees could bid on the 37 dresses up for sale. There was also a clearance rack, with all dresses there going for 15 dollars. 

In addition, there was a coffee and dessert bar for attendees, as well as a Chinese Auction. After a break, the winners of the auctions were announced, and the event was over.
Anya Corrassco, one of the main coordinators for the event, reported it was a success. “We raised close to 2,000 dollars,” she said “that takes off one-fifth the cost of the venue, and will definitely help lower the price of the tickets.” Anya closed her remark by thanking everyone for their support, and for attending the event. Finally, coordinators announced that prom will be held at Bella Sera restaurant on May 20th.

Homecoming Dance

Homecoming is something many people look forward to during their high school years. For the Sophomores, it's one of the first traditional dances they’re invited to. For Juniors, it's a celebration of growing up, a right of passage. And for Seniors, it's one of the last big dances they attend before graduation, and a chance to run for Homecoming King or Queen. Homecoming court always creates a stir among students, be it underclassmen wondering which running seniors will win titles, or hopeful voters eager to see if their favorite candidate will be crowned King or Queen.  This year, however, Homecoming elections sparked a very different conversation among students. Initially scheduled for  Friday's pep rally, the heavily anticipated  announcements of King and Queen were postponed until the Homecoming football game at the last minute. Mr. Loughren teased students on stage with an envelope holding the King and Queen winners, building suspense before announcing...

Advice from a Senior: Study Tips

Now that midterms are over and we are all beginning to see our grades, we have had time to reflect on what study methods worked and what did not. This article compiles several study methods I have found successful throughout high school, and especially this year. Step 1: Determine What You Need to Study, AKA Prioritize It would be counterproductive to study topics you already know; therefore, it is necessary to prioritize what you understand least. Determining what you do not know is a vital part of studying. I find the most successful way to determine what you do not know is by attempting to complete a study guide or practice test without looking up questions. If the teacher did not provide any of these materials, you may try to redoing questions from your notes or worksheets you have already done. Occasionally, you may benefit from solving questions in the textbook or from online. It is common to do poorly on this initial assessment, but by observing what questions you get w...
