John Annucci, Staff Writer

Hi, my name is John Annucci, and I am a sophomore at Foran High School. This is my first year in Journalism. I decided to join Journalism because I wanted to become a better writer and because I wanted to learn more about people and events in our school. At Foran, I am involved in Key Club, Basketball, and Lacrosse. In my free time, I enjoy hanging out with my friends and family.
