The end of the Cougar Times as the graduation bell chimes...

By Chloe

We're so close to being finished with the Garrison School, which means that we're finished with this year's Cougar Times. We've covered topics ranging from the Holiday dance in 2007 to the 8th-grade Boston trip in 2009.

We've improved in our writing, as well as the topics we've chosen. I think our writing has matured and become more sophisticated. I've enjoyed interviewing people about various topics. My favorite interview was the sports one about how students love to play on teams.

I have so many favorite stories that my fellow students have written that I find it difficult to choose the one I like best. Some stories took time to write and research, but in the end, they all turned out great.

Mrs. Rowe has helped us every step of the way. She's helped us come up with ideas, edit our writing, and much more! Without her, there wouldn't be a Cougar Times. We're all thankful that she's helped us come so far! I can't believe so much time has passed!

Adviser's note: A huge congratulations to the Cougar Times staff on creating such a great newsblog, rich in voice and style! They have worked hard on their interviewing and writing skills and have learned to edit their work for enjoyable reading on the web. The site has a sophisticated design as well that should be commended. All the best as they continue in their many pursuits in high school and beyond!--Mrs. Rowe
