Lana Salahieh, Editor-in-Chief

Hi! My name is Lana, and I'm editor in chief this year! My hobbies include listening to the same playlist for six months, sending snail-mail to my friends, bullet journaling, and photography. When I'm not working on Crier, you might find me at band, french club, project x, or poetry club. As a senior, this is my third and final year in publications, so I am ready to make the most of it!

FROM ANOTHER PERSPECTIVE Along with teaching from 7:35 a.m. to 2:35 p.m. five days a week, teachers deal with extra burdens all day long. These include staying up late into the night to finish up work, teaching to unresponsive classes, and sanatizing desks after every class to ensure the safety of their students.

NO JUSTICE NO PEACE Speaking on a megaphone to a listening crowd, Kayla Prowell, class of ‘19, recites a poem during the protest that occurred June 5. Kayla also later helped plan a second protest at the town hall. Munster saw a surge of students, graduates and adult support in response to the resurgence of Black Lives Matter this year, paralleling the peaceful protests that have been sparked throughout the nation, “We’re tired of having to do this. We’re tired of having to fight for our rights over and over and over again. We fought for them 300 years ago, we fought for them 100 years ago, we fought for them 60 and 50 years ago. We’re always fighting, and I think that we’re tired of being our own advocates. We’re tired of people not being tired of being racist.

During sixth hour Ms. Hannah Fus smiles for a picture wearing her clear mask. Facial expressions are a crucial component to learning ASL. “Some issues I’ve come across is being able to read the students faces,” Ms. Fus explains. “I wear a mask with a clear part around my nose down to the chin so the students can see my facial expressions without too much trouble.”
