Ella is a sophomore this 23-24 school year. She enjoyed working with the HHS Journalism family last year and is ready to put pen to press again for a 2nd time, but now as Feature Editor. Some of her favorite writing topics include, keeping the Fort Thomas community informed on upcoming events, the doings around Highlands High School along with sports and greater worldly concerns that might span perhaps further than our Fort Thomas community; this is what she plans to bring into light this year with the Hilltopper Online Newspaper.
