I stumbled upon the Echo by accident, or one could say fate, when my sophomore year schedule had an open slot to fill.

  No, this isn’t another review no one asked for, or a column for my classmates to post and roll their eyes about (people might, I’m used to it). It’s my farewell to Webster and the Echo: something I’ve been crafting up in my head for about a year now.

  One thing that you will soon learn about me if you don’t know already is that I hate “Goodbyes.” I think that’s why I’ve put off writing this for so long. I feel like I don’t even know where to start, and I know that once I really start writing, I have to stop pretending my time on the Echo isn’t coming to an end.

I was in Best Buddies freshman and sophomore year, helped on the yearbook a bit. I’m in National Honors Society and have been in the marching band/wind symphony for all of my high school career.
