The great Miss Helen Keller once said, "Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing." The sophomore lives by these words. It's time to make a little history of their own. Sophomore year is here.

Whether sophomore, “Strummer,” teacher, or parent, one thing’s for sure, they’re not freshmen anymore.
