My name is Rachel! I speak three languages, which include Spanish, English, and mandarin. I’m half Chinese and half Peruvian. Some things I’m involved in include being an executive producer for BNN, DUB.C, class council, red cross, and I am also president for Calligraphy Club, BNN, and Insight. I love watching movies, skating, and thrifting.

District fixed ASB clerk Rebecca Power’s office window on Feb. 9 after four days of it being boarded with wood. The exact details of the theft including the items taken are confidential as the West Covina police department continues to investigate. Principal Charles Park shared that perpetrators of the crime are subjected to both repercussions from the school and the criminal justice system. “Theft can range on a pendulum from suspension to expulsion… A situation like this once we solve and figure out who is responsible school consequences will apply. If not then police consequences will apply equally,” said Park.
