Piecing together the evidence, senior Patrick May studies fingerprints collected from a Diet Pepsi can during a forensic science lab on Nov. 5. Students practiced fingerprint dusting and pattern identification to learn how investigators analyze crime-scene evidence. “It was surprising to see how much time and precision goes into analyzing fingerprints. It’s a lot harder than I expected,” May said.

“I’ve had animals in my life for as long as I can remember, and they’ve always been the first thing I go to for comfort; having them around is what makes my home feel like home. When I was in middle school, I would see all these cute cat and dog videos on social media while scrolling. I eventually thought that instead of just watching them, I should actually spend my time helping and contributing in some way, so I decided to start volunteering [at animal shelters]. The most rewarding part is getting to watch animals go from being scared and hurt to coming out of their shells, getting healthy and becoming social again. I think it also makes you realize how much of a difference you can make in another living thing’s life, even if you don’t necessarily think you’re doing anything extraordinary. No matter what I end up doing in the future, helping animals will always be important to me.” – Alanna Flores, 11

Celebrating a ticket to state, junior pitcher Keira Pritchard leaps into the air alongside her teammates after a varsity softball victory over Festus on Oct. 24. The state quarterfinal win sent the Longhorns to the Final Four for the first time in three years. “I didn’t really think it was [going to be our last game],” Pritchard said. “In my head, I felt like we were gonna win.”

Soaring toward the goal, senior Henry Philippi attempts a header off a corner kick during the varsity boys’ soccer Pink Out game on Oct. 20. Despite a scoreless regulation period, the Longhorns carried their offensive momentum into overtime to secure a 1-0 win. “I was very confident that we were going to win just because of how much we kept the ball,” Philippi said.

“I feel like every time I get hurt, or something happens [to me], I go deeper into a hole, and it affects me a lot. I have a mindset [focused on] who I want to be, and if I don’t get there, I’m gonna push harder and harder until I [do]. I play football because I want to, in the future, give my mom a nice house and get my family into a better living environment than where we are now. [My mom has] been in my corner since I was five [when I first started playing football]. She means the world to me, [and] that’s why I play football.” – Antoine Porter, 10

Performing a front one-and-a-half with one full twist dive, senior Matt Finlinson flies above the flags during Senior Night on Oct.14. After years of refining his dives, Finlinson’s dedication has translated into higher scores and stronger performances. “[Senior Night] was really special to me because I’ve been on the dive team for four years now. I’ve seen all four years pass and gone through four senior nights, and it was really cool to finally have it be my time,” Finlinson said. “[Senior year] is cool because I can use all these dives that I’ve been working on building through four years of diving, and I can see all of my work starting to pay off in getting higher scores and doing better in competitions.”

Holding her cello above her head, sophomore Emily Wang poses with fellow orchestra members during a group photo on Oct. 7. Wang joined orchestra in fourth grade and enjoyed working together to create music and supporting friends during concerts. “Once you get to the part where you’re with a bunch of people, and you’re all playing the same song and working together to make it sound good, that is really special sometimes,” Wang said.

“If I had to describe myself in three words, I would say I’m hardworking, altruistic and an innovator. I love to cook and bake in my free time, [and] I think it’s important to have something [out of school] that I enjoy. I like that baking requires me to follow different steps and be attentive to details. It gives me a break and is a way to de-stress from schoolwork without just doomscrolling. At school, especially with all the hard classes [I’m taking], it’s important I make a structured plan of what needs to get done every day. I prioritize assignments that are due sooner and work on future assignments when I can. Ten years from now, I see myself still in school and nearing the end, with lots of late nights studying. In the future, I want to go to Washington University and become a pediatric oncologist.” – Sarah Helwani, 10
