Mary Grace Weissauer, Co-Editor in Chief

Hi! My name is Mary Grace Weissauer. I am so excited to be editor in chief this year! I am Captain of the Volleyball team and a member of the softball team. I enjoy hiking, the beach and practicing ASL! I plan on majoring in journalism with a minor in public health, with plans to be a scientific researcher. The goal is to be a publisher with a focus on molecular biology and herbology. I also plan to play volleyball next year at the collegiate level. I am a member of National Honor Society, Unified Sports for athletes with disabilities, key club member, President of Natural Helpers, and running Student Government Candidate. I can't wait to begin writing this school year and continue to contribute to this great program!
