Jaime Jazo, Features Editor

I am a senior at Bonita Vista High School and this is my second year on staff. I joined newspaper in order to achieve my full potential with my writing skills and surround myself with a hardworking and affectionate community.  The fact that we have the ability to give voices to the voiceless is why I admire newspaper.  Outside of extracurricular, I am a member of the Task Force 2022 as well as our school’s Mock Trial Team.
