"They say you can't be a light if it wasn't for the dark side. Some days you gotta smile through all the broken times" (MattyB California dreamin) "Don't wanna be an American idiot. One nation controlled by the media." (Green Day- American Idiot.
I went through a lot of hard things. I think having a dark or rough time gives you a reason to be positive. I want to be a light to someone and be there for others going through a hard time. Not everything is about social media and what is the newest trend. Social media is a good thing for connecting with others but it is not always correct. I want to be able to provide correct information to others so I can help them. I can be a bit of a nerd at times, quiet and loud. Also, I am more tomboy than girly. I will more than likely know about every Emo band and usually have lyrics stuck in my head. I am an ENTP personality type (extroverted intuitive thinking and perceiving) I like hanging out with people and I mainly focus on ideas and concepts. I prioritize logic and reasoning. I prefer my freedom and flexibility.

(Editor in Chief)
WASSUP~I’m Andrea, my mom thought I was an ulcer, therefore adding to my extreme middle child syndrome. I have a natural maniacal villain laugh, and love Lana Del Rey songs (except Florida Kilos because eww.) I like saying “Who toucha my spaghett.”🤣 Most importantly, I’m a student at the Ninth Grade Academy. I am also not only apart of The Academy Chronicles, but I’m also Editor n’ Chief. I love listening to others and their stories and I hope that by the time I leave this school, I leave some reputable legacy for not only this club but this school, highlighting its positive traits and broadcasting the good times we share. To those who are viewing our site, your keeping that dream alive. So thanks!

Kiera H.
(Lead Graphic Designer)
Hello, hoomans. I am Kiera, a student at the Bartlett Academy. I have hobbies of drawing, painting, writing songs, and making music. I am quite attached to music. It is my comfort zone. I listen to many genres, such as rock, pop, K-pop, hip-hop, different techno genres, and so on. I tend to write songs when I am experiencing strong emotions or just feel like it! I could rant on and on about my love for music, but I have restrictions on my paragraph. Haha. So… Potato, out!

Heyyyo! My name is Brook and I’m a ninth grader at the Academy. A few things that you may like to know about me is that I love music-rock & country mostly. I was born in Oakland, TN and moved to Bartlett 3 years ago. I love photography and art, and I joined newspaper in hopes of being able to work with others and take pictures. I am proud to be apart of it. My dream after high school is to be a freelance artist and to live in California, LA. I have basically lived a whole life of bullying. If I could go to my past self from elementary school, I would tell her to keep walking and stay smiling.
