Hello Parker!
Happy break everyone! You made it! The semester is almost over, and it’s holiday szn. Before we know it, it’ll be warm outside again!
We’ve got some great content to check out in this issue. Make sure to check out Ava Stepan’s article about Sex-Ed in the Upper School, Celia Rattner and Lauren Hughes’ look into the use of Adderall at Parker, and Emma Manley’s look into the High Jump program at Parker.
As always, feel free to reach out with any comments or questions, or write a Letter-to-the-Editors about anything you take an interest in. Happy reading, and Happy Holidays!

About the Writers
Sophia Saker, Editor-in-Chief
This year is Sophia's fourth and final on "The Weekly." She is beyond excited to serve as "Editor in Chief," and can't wait to lead the staff into another great year. In previous years she served as Features Editor, Copy Editor, and Staff Writer. She also co-led the "Journalism and Society Today" symposium last January. Over the summer, she knit a full-length scarf in one week.
Sammy Kagan, Editor-in-Chief
Sammy Kagan is excited to spend his senior year as Editor-in-Chief of “The Weekly.” He enjoys frequenting the cheese section at Jewel-Osco and hates stiff blue jeans. Sammy proudly wears a blue and white string bracelet on his left wrist which reads “WEEKLY,” despite constant assurance from his friends that such an accessory is wildly embarrassing. Ask to see it; he made it himself.
Avani Kalra, Editor-in-Chief
Avani Kalra is a senior and is ecstatic to be serving as an Editor-in-Chief of “The Weekly” this year. Previously, Avani has served as Editor-in-Chief in her junior year, a Copy Editor in her sophomore year, and a Staff Writer her freshman year. When not working on “The Weekly,” (which is rare) Avani can be found catching up on sleep... so don't call her with an AP style question.
