Our upcoming February Issue of The Express is devoted to telling Black student’s stories and recognizing the inequities within our district and our school.

Emma Johnson, Editor-In-Chief

Emma Johnson is a senior and the Editor-In-Chief for “The Express.” For this upcoming year, Emma is most looking forward to navigating how to run a newsroom amidst everything and getting to know everyone on staff. In her freetime, Emma loves to do anything involving music and spending time with her friends and family. Emma also scrolls on tiktok for an unreasonable amount of time and enjoys going out to eat and online shopping; which is unfortunate for her bank account. In the future Emma intends to major in Communications and minor in Political Science.
