The CCHS Advanced Strings received their State Orchestra evaluation last night: they were awarded an overall Superior rating (the highest category an ensemble can receive).
I am so proud of their work. This being my second year at CCHS and no state events being held last spring, this is my first time qualifying with and taking an ensemble to a state festival. Please feel free to congratulate the students involved listed left. If you would like to hear their state performance, please feel free to enjoy the recordings to the right and above. One piece features our harpist, and another is an excerpt from a Mendelssohn String Symphony (professional-level repertoire). |

WHAT THE COLORS YOU WEAR MEAN

Oftentimes when you are thinking about what you want to wear you will wear what is most flattering for your body and skin tone. But the color you wear will also send a subconscious message to the people around you. So next time you are getting ready, think about these colors and if youre trying to impress someone then really consider coming back to this article.
YELLOW, much like the sun it appears bright, sunny, and cheerful. So when you wear it you will appear more confident, and you will catch many looks. You will seemingly be more curious, spontaneous, ambitious, joyful and young. GREEN is a natural, beautiful and reassuring color. It appears as relaxing, refreshing, peaceful and hopeful. It makes you seem lively and active. BLUE is one of the most popular and most common colors to be worn, it creates a calming, cool feeling. It will encourage decision making, independence, and wisdom. But on the contrary it can also create a cold and depressing feeling. ORANGE shows the creative side of people and you will seem more energetic. It should be worn by those who are more depressed to show a side of light to hopefully cheer them up. PURPLE shows luxury and wealth, it will make someone appear sophisticated. It can also be seen as love and purity by those who seek it. RED is an intense color, it draws the eye and will definitely catch your attention. It is the color of love and is usually worn to impress. But it is a tricky color because it can seem very strong and so because of this it should not be worn in confrontational settings. But on the contrary it can make a person seem dominant. PINK as it would seem, means that the person is usually more gentle, caring, soft, and compassionate. It should be avoided by those who are dependent on their peers because they could be manipulated. Colors, whether you see it the way others see it or not can change perspective on people. Subconsciously people will assume and think of you differently based off of the colors you wear, so choose wisely. !!

...the worst sickness a highschooler can catch, it's far worse than the CoronaVirus! HAHA kidding, but for seniors this year, the lack of motivation is hitting harder than ever. Many students are unable to focus or even care about their tedious assignments, and that goes for all grades, but the difference between them and seniors is that the seniors might just leave the assignment blank. And this does not mean that the students reach a certain point in their high school career that they will just not give any effort towards things. What is happening is there are other stress factors now being introduced to their lives; such as college and career decisions. This is added to their already stressful and chaotic schedules. Students' social life often times gets thrown on the back burner because they are loaded with work upon work even outside of school hours. This causes less time with family and friends, causing late nights, causing lack of sleep, and causing tired students in class and the cycle continues. Students are not simply “slacking off”, or “lazy”, rather they are stressed, overwhelmed, overworked, and not getting enough credit for their efforts.
So how can we help the seniors or how can they help themselves? Parents, teachers and peers can help students keep good habits by encouraging and praising the hard work being put into tasks. They can also help teach them time management skills. Students should try their best to stay organized and productive; write things down, simply make their bed, stay involved, continue favorite activities. Introduce ways to study while getting social fun in, meaning, group studying and/or just group hang outs to decompress. But make sure that after you get right back on track. And because most students are thinking about their next level of education, think about the fun as well as the stressful situations to best prepare during the last little bit of high school. Honestly though, enjoy your last moments in high school, enjoy the spontaneous adventures and such, because you will miss them. And of course college and the rest of life will be full of good times, but remember to live in the present moment. GOOD LUCK TO SENIORS AND ALL CORNER CANYON STUDENTS! POSTED 4/20/21 |

37 Arrests Made in One Weekend

For a few years now, Corner Canyon has been the “hangout” spot for teenagers around Utah. Students would drive around in their cars, play music, meet and hang out with other teenagers. So why are police finally cracking down on the issue?
There have been noise complaints from people who live in the houses near the school and these consisted of loud music and people just being loud in general. The police department had tried to fix it by kicking people out at a certain time but the problems still weren’t fixed and problems were reoccurring. In a recent decision the city changed trespassing hours. The Corner Canyon Districts spokesman, Jeff Haney, explained that they’d “...seen drag racing there, we’ve had fireworks and other explosive devices be ignited after hours, we’ve had loud music after hours…” |
The 37 students who had been arrested were all arrested for trespassing on campus after hours. On a Facebook post made by Draper police, they stated that “minors congregating on school property late in the evenings have been involved in violations, including reckless driving (with injury), arson, discharge of an explosive device, fights underage drinking, and loud music”. The draper police department is fed up and they are working with the school district to make a change. So, what’s the next step?
Officers have been patrolling the area for some time now and that will still be in place. Draper city has been working with the school district in which they are planning to install gates around the school in which it will limit access to the parking lots. The city of Draper has asked parents to talk to their kids about not gathering at the school.
The city is doing what they can to prevent teens from congregating here and Draper police please ask to obey the time school grounds close. Be safe!

SPRING BREAK

Hey there Chargers! Hopefully everyone was and is able to enjoy a week away from school! Spring break is such an enjoyable holiday for students, teachers, and families. Many families take advantage of this time and travel, do activities, and spend time together. This time away from school is so good for students mentally because they can be relieved of stress for the week. Not only is it very beneficial mentally, but physically there can also be some benefits. It is proven that when the mind is happy, the body is happy. Stresses and anxiety can cause physical distress so the break can alleviate this.
|
When time is taken off people are able to prevent further “burnout”, and regroup. You are also able to CATCH UP ON SLEEP! A dream to any student. Without the strict schedule of; class after class, starting at 8 am, kids are able to relax, sleep in, and get their beauty sleep. Because of this schedule that students are required to follow they may be ignoring their hunger cues and health, so time away from the school allows for yummy food, and bonus, yummy food with family! If they are not at home, and they went on a fabulous vacation elsewhere, they are able to try new foods, and see new cultures. These new experiences, firstly are so fun, but they are also a great way of learning and discovering. This will ultimately turn on anyone’s creative parts of their brain.
Creativity is a great way to cure boredom and learn at the same time, so here are some great things to do right at home or in between vacation adventures...

GRAMMY PERFORMANCES IN DEPTH
BY JADA CLAYTON
EDITOR OF HOME PAGE
This year's GRAMMYs were a hit! Lots of happy faces, lots of excited winners and nominees, but today we will be talking about some of the fan favorites and their performances. Let's discuss the visual aspect of each performance in addition to their hit songs.
Firstly, Harry Styles performed his song “Watermelon Sugar”. He kicked off the performances of the night by singing and dancing, with his iconic outfit. He wore an all black leather suit and paired it with a light green boa scarf while shirtless. He danced around the stage, tossed his boa scarf to the side and had beautiful color displays. The band played live and killed it. This performance, and his hard work of 11 years in the industry earned him best pop solo performance of the year.

Next let's discuss Taylor Swift's beautiful fairy-tale like performance. She had a woodland house and forest surrounding her while she had a gorgeous flowing dress trail behind her. She began by laying on the roof of a small moss covered house, slowly she stood up and walked into the house. Swift grabbed her guitar and segued into her next song, august. The order of her three songs went as follows; cardigan, august, willow. This performance was visually stunning, and we applaud her!
Billie Eilish, she swept the Grammys last time, and again had a great performance. She was in a dark setting with glittery clothes and a stunning jeweled headpiece. She stood on the hood of a car with one light flashing. She performed her song “Everything I Wanted” with her brother Finneas, he stood on a platform behind her. Another visually stunning performance, the glittery accessories shone through the dark stage.
The BTS crew also had a great dancing and singing performance with colorful clothes, displays and backgrounds. Although they and their fans were discouraged about the award going to Ariana Grande and Lady GaGa’s duo, their performance was very significant to their future Grammys career. They sang their hit song “Dynamite” which is a southern Korea original, making it one of the first to be performed on the Grammys stage.
These of course are not ALL of the performances, these are only some of the favorites, so to access all of the performances click here ( 2021 Grammy Awards: Watch the Performances )

"How Biden handles the surge could set the tone for the eventual legislative debate on comprehensive immigration reform." -NEWSWEEK
immigration influx creates challenges at texas border
|
KADEN BORG
INDEPENDENT COLUMNIST Following the federal policy put in place by the Biden administration, there has been an increase in illegal immigration at the border. Unaccompanied children crossing the border are expected to be around 100,000 up from 78,000 in January. This challenge is testing the Biden administration's ability to quickly respond and make policy decisions. In response to the policy decisions and illegal activity Governor Greg Abbott (R-TX) has pledged to deploy 500 national guard troops which are expected to arrive at the end of the week. These troops are already training to work in observation posts which will be in support of the Department of Public Safety, which is adding about 1,200 state police officers to the region. “We will work to step up and try to fill the gap that the federal government is leaving open by making sure we deploy every resource, whether it be the Department of Public Safety or Texas National Guard, whatever we need to do. Texas is going to fight for the safety and security of our state,” Abbott said Tuesday during a news conference along the border in Mission, Texas. “There is a crisis on the Texas border right now with the overwhelming number of people coming across the border. This crisis is a result of President Biden’s open border policies. |
It invites illegal immigration and is creating a humanitarian crisis in Texas right now that will grow increasingly worse by the day,” Abbott said explicitly blaming two of president Biden's policies
as the problem. Newsweek reported that "The brewing confrontation will test Biden just as he and the Democratic-led Congress prepare to introduce comprehensive immigration reform, a key campaign promise." About 3,600 active-duty service members and Guard troops from several states are already deployed at the border to help support US customs and border protections. This began under President Trump in 2018 and continues under President Biden. However this mission is entirely different. Abbott hopes to see some policy and changes at the federal level. In the meantime he is hoping that operation "Lone Star" can help facilitate the new arrivals at the border. POSTED 3/1021 |
JUNIOR ACT TEST
BY JADA CLAYTON
EDITOR OF HOME PAGE
EDITOR OF HOME PAGE

This next Tuesday on March, 9 all of the juniors at Corner Canyon high school will be taking the dreaded ACT! And as many other students know, this means that freshmen, sophomores, and seniors are not required to come to the school that day. The test will be administered in the morning at 7:40 in the morning, but come to the school somewhere between 7:15 and 7:30 A.M. The test will take about three and a half hours, but there will be a short break between the second and third tests. Prior to taking the exam, each student is required to fill out the non-test information. Calculators from the pre-approved emailed list are allowed during the test, but smartphones, smartwatches, and laptops are not allowed.
Because of this ongoing, annoying, terrible pandemic, not all colleges last year were requiring SAT and ACT scores for acceptance. (2020 schools that DIDN'T require SAT/ACT) But this year, SOME schools are no longer requiring an ACT or SAT test for their acceptance, some include the Coronavirus as one of the reasons for this change and others have other reasons, (2021-22 schools- optional SAT/ACT). Covid-19 made it hard for testees to study, attend prep classes, and find the tests online instead of in person. |
This of course is different for differernt schools, but it's a good general look. Specific schools still reccomend that if at all possible for students to take the tests, then they should! So while we all definetly do not want to take the test, if possible, it's for the best.
GOOD LUCK JUNIORS!!! As for everyone else, enjoy your day off. POSTED 3/4/21 |
CLONE HIGH COMING BACK
BY HUGO EVANS

HUGO EVANS
EDITORIAL EDITOR I am stoked. And it’s not because I’m braving another day of existence on this tumultuous Earth. It’s because Clone High, arguably the most underrated animated TV show ever made, is getting a renewal for two more seasons. While little has been released about the reboot of the 2002 animated series, just the promise of more content to come has me absolutely psyched. For those who are unfamiliar with Clone High, the premise consists of teenage clones of famous historical figures (Gandhi, Abraham Lincoln, Joan of Arc, and John F. Kennedy, to name a few) navigating their way through high school with outlandish, but also relatable results in a parody of late 90s, early 00s teen dramas. This bizarre and entertaining spectacle was all soundtracked by emo-rock band Abandoned Pools and other angst-y musical outfits that were undoubtedly the music choice of several teenagers during the time that the show was set. Not only was Clone High’s soundtrack weirdly perfect, it’s animation and dialogue were smart, witty, and quick, with some surprisingly high-profile guest cameos thrown in there (Jack Black, Marilyn Manson, John Stamos, etc). Unfortunately, the show was canceled following its first season thanks to their controversial interpretation of teenage Mahatma Gandhi, following enormous backlash in India. After its untimely ending, Clone High receded into obscurity. Its writers, Phil Lord and Chris Miller, went onto have successful careers elsewhere in the movie and television industry, writing and directing movies such as 21 Jump Street, Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs, and Spiderman: Into the Spider-Verse. However, following a recent resurgence of Clone High’s popularity, Lord and Miller announced that they will be bringing Clone High back from the dead, resuming their writing positions. While this announcement is extremely exciting, especially to every fan hungry for a resolution for the gigantic cliffhanger it left us on, this Clone High reboot has its work cut out for it, and it’s going to be no easy task to recapture the first season’s charm, wit, and outlook regarding teenage behaviors and social attitudes in our present time. Let’s hope that these new seasons are as high quality and entertaining as the first one, and not a soulless, half-baked cash grab that so many other animated TV show reboots are. |

no man is an island...we all need support along the way

If your anxiety and fear is overwhelming, try these strategies and check in with your school counselor.
Media Distancing: To stop the spread of COVID-19, we’ve had to practice social distancing. But to stop the spread of anxiety, we must distance ourselves from the media. Do Not Engage with Worry. Take Action: the more your mind focuses on worst-case scenarios, the more anxious you feel. There is a huge difference between worrying and problem solving. Do Not React to Physical Symptoms: If you cough, it does not mean you have the COVID-19. Allergies, bronchitis, post-nasal drip, and the cold are more common. Be Productive and Enjoy Life: Creating and accomplishing puts your attention on what is satisfying. Engage in Stress Reduction Activities: Focusing on what you are grateful for, exercising your body, and relaxing your mind will help give you the peace you desire. Be Kind to Yourself and Others and Have Faith: It’s normal to feel anxious and worried during a national crisis. Don’t be hard on yourself. Reaching out to relatives and friends who are isolated or in need will boost their spirits and yours. SOURCE: Anxiety and Depression Association of America POSTED 3/10/21 |
SNOW DAY!

SNOW DAY! This phrase used to mean no assignments, no teachers, no worries, just hot cocoa, snowmen/women, cozy blankets, and a warm fire with a book. But now because of Covid they have realized that just like the pandemic shut downs we are able to hold lectures online. Today (2/17/21) at Corner Canyon High School, Draper Park Middle school and Draper elementary there was no one in the building, well at least no students, well there weren’t supposed to be. The snow in Draper Utah was coming down in bucketfuls so the administrators decided that for everyone's safety classes would be held online. Students were expected to be on each zoom meeting at the allotted time, which was the beginning of the class period. Students are encouraged to complete all assignments during the class period to then catch the next zoom. As a student, this is the worst, I would like to play in the snow for hours on end, enjoy my family, and warm up with some blankets, but you know what they always say; “Work hard play hard!”
Because it is hard to stay focused the entire day when in the comfort of your own home, and people need brain breaks, here are some fun activities to do within your home! Firstly, people can go outside and enjoy themselves in the snow by sledding, and building igloo forts, and snow people. People can also watch movies with their loved ones that are also at home staying safe and warm from the snow. Crafts, puzzles, drawing, painting, creative thinking is a great way to keep yourself occupied and entertained, but it also gets your brain working. bemorewithless.com says that for future instances creativity can help with problem solving and it can create confidence. When creative you are willing to succeed and fail hence the confidence to try new things! Speaking of trying new things, you can try new recipes and foods that you normally would not have time or the desire to try. Although we all wish that they could “have mercy”, or just “give us a break” and cancel assignments for just one day, they aren’t going to. So make the best of it and try to enjoy smaller activities at home! STAY SAFE AND WARM EVERYONE! |

So, we’ve had some warm weather in the past week that has been single-handedly curing mine and many others seasonal depression. While it’s been giving us all the summer feels, it’s also been unfortunate for snow-sport lovers.
Not to fret, snow friends! Our bestie Phil from Punxsutawney was put up to the task back on February second. When the results came in, it was made clear that Phil in fact saw his shadow. If you don’t understand what that means, well.. we still have six more weeks of winter. Because my audience is a great deal of teenagers who live in Utah and presumably love the mountains, I’ll pretend like this is a good thing. Yay! Six more weeks of winter! Moving on. Let’s check the weather for the next week. Here’s a list of all the days it is supposedly going to snow: ---> And for the mutual pluviophiles, It’s supposed to rain Friday the 12, and Saturday the 20th. It has been a very dry winter. We’ve had almost no snow this year, so hopefully this will be good for our environment as well as our snow enthusiasts souls. I guess i will have to learn to snowboard after all. It is difficult; living in Utah and now having our recognizable snowy winters. People visiting from other states this year and the past few years must think that our mountains are exaggerated or overrated. Due to climate change, it may come across this way. Unfortunately, our winters are getting warmer. Land and Ocean temperatures have increased, 0.7 degrees Celsius since 1880, and that number has risen twice that rate (at .18 degrees Celsius) since 1981. It;s a lot to take in, but nothing you haven’t heard before. So I guess we can thank "phil" for "giving" Utah an extra couple weeks to get back on track (: POSTED 2/10/21 Days it should snow:
Friday, February 12: 80% Saturday, February 13: 100% Monday, February 15: 70% Tuesday, February 16: 70% Wednesday, February 17: 50% Thursday, February 18: 30% Friday, February 19: 40% ______________________________________________ |

ONE DIRECTION/SOLO FUN FACTS

One direction, although they are not currently performing together, they still left people craving more! They continue to get streams for the band and their solo careers. Each member of the band is thriving in their solos and we wish them the best!!
Firstly, let's talk about the band and their highlights. -The band is so charitable, they have supported hundreds of charities! -They sold the most random items as part of their merchandise. Some honorable mentions include; toothbrushes, backpacks, t-shirts of course, keychains, necklaces, perfume, coffee cups, and pencils! -They made the Guinness world records by making the tops of the US charts for a UK band. They did this when they released their “Up All Night” album. -The five boys all performed on the X-Factor and then got thrown into a band together in about 10 minutes. -The fandom has put the boys into “Era’s” this is based off of the boys appearances and the time. Now let’s talk about boys individually, and we’ll start off tallest to shortest. Harry Edward Styles is the tallest at 6 feet tall. He has released two albums, with 22 songs total. -Before the X-Factor he worked in a bakery. -Harry is a large supporter of many causes, Black Lives Matter movement, LGTBQ community, charities, etc. -This band member was in a band before the band. His first band was called “White Eskimos''. Next in height, Liam James Payne at 5 feet 10 inches tall. -Spoons, Liam has a very strange fear of spoons! -Liam often went by the nickname “Payno”. -His favorite color is purple. -He used to have a bad kidney but it magically healed itself. Coming in at 5 feet 9 inches, Zayn (Zain- changed to be spelled with a Y for a more original stage name) Javadd Malik! Although he left the band, we still love and adore him. -He LOVES the Harry Potter books and series! -He is afraid of the water and swimming, he never had lessons as a kid. -Before each performance Zayn would brush his teeth! 
|
Niall and Louis are actually the same height, but the fandom likes to tease Louis and say that he is the shortest! So because of that, Niall James Horan at 5 feet 8 inches
-This blonde boy isn’t naturally blonde, he dyes it, more recently he has gone with a more natural color. -Niall loves to play golf! -He plays the guitar, and for that matter, he plays it very well. -He is the only band member from Ireland. -And he really does not like pigeons, James Corden had him on his show and pranked him by putting a bird on Niall’s head. And to finish up the fun facts with our shortest member at 5 feet 8 inches, Louis William Tomlinson. -Louis birthday is on Christmas eve! -He loves to sing and play the piano to the song ‘Mr. Brightside’ by the Killers. -He was the oldest member of the band. -In one of the popular diary videos he says he likes girls who eat carrots. To say the least, this group of boys that we all know and love are so unique making the band (when together) that much better. They are all successful in their new careers and we are so happy for them!! POSTED 2/3/21 |

2021 is a great year for Disney’s Marvel, and now that more and more theaters are opening back up we are able to enjoy the new films in full effect. Movies are of course fun to experience at home, but we are now able to watch films in the theaters with popcorn, and soda! Disney’s Marvel Cinematic Universe has postponed a couple of things from us but they are all coming to the big screen now. They have also taken advantage of those who are still prone to and nervous about Covid, by releasing multiple new series to Disney Plus. Firstly, there are a few new marvel series that should be noted, LOKI, WANDAVISION, DOCTOR STRANGE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS and THE FALCON AND WINTER SOLDIER. Thus far WandaVision is the only series that has been released (with three, almost four episodes), and they are making sure people are aware of the upcoming films and shows. There have been small easter eggs hinting towards other marvel connections. These other series will also be availible on Disney Plus. Each story line will follow a character or two from the MCU. Marvel is also releasing two very exciting, very large movies this year. That includes BLACK WIDOW, May 1st, and SPIDER-MAN 3, December 17th. Black widow will be placed during her past and then throughout the rest of her training, fighting and extreme life up to Infinity War. The Spider man movie supposedly stars Tom Holland, Andrew Garfield, Toby Maguire. Marvel is largely popular and its franchise continues to grow, they continue to create beautiful films with entertaining plots for the viewers enjoyment. Each film is unique with connections to other Marvel movies and characters.

DISNEY LOVE TRIANGLE?

Olivia Rodrigo, starring in Disney+'s High School Musical: The Musical: The Series has recently released a song called Drivers license, supposedly inspired by her break up with co-star Joshua Bassett. The song begins with the sounds of a starting car, and other car sounds, then Olivia begins telling the story. The song essentially tells the listener that she doesn’t love how things ended, “And I know we weren’t perfect, but I've never felt this way for no one.” Like a rebuttal to the song Rodrigo released, Joshua Bassett is releasing a song titled Lie Lie Lie this Thursday, January 14, 2021. Fans believe this song was written about her song and their breakup. When you read some of the lyrics you will see that it says “Told them the lies that you told me- I've had enough of it this time”. Ironically Olivia says “‘cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street” and if the song is about their breakup like suspected then Joshua lied, cause they are obviously not “forever”. To add some more to this drama, in the song lyrics of Drivers License, Olivia mentions a “blonde girl”. What is believed, is that this part of the song is bashing on Sabrina Carpenter, a fellow Disney star. This theory sprouts from a Tik Tok video posted on Joshua’s account, the two are dressed in a couple costume of the classic Sharkboy and Lava Girl (released in 2005). Then the two appear on Sabrina’s account in the same outfits. This little love triangle situation is eating up the attention of many on Tik Tok, Instagram and Disney Plus. To wrap this up, Joshua's album cover is of him laying on a car, and it looks very similar to the car Olivia drives in her music video. STREAM DRIVERS LICENSE AND WAIT FOR LIE LIE LIE TO RELEASE!!!!

SUPPORT OUR ECO-FRIENDLY FRIENDS!

While our rapid-fire economy continues to create growth for the nation, it is unfortunately incredibly destructive. Mass production and industrial processes haven’t been at all beneficial for our earth. Living in utah, we’ve all seen how polluted the air can be. The pollution-orange sunsets and constant fog is a bit depressing. Thankfully, green, independent companies have our backs! These companies usually have one collective goal; to better the environment that we live in. They've made a difference by encouraging others to support them rather than big business industries. Next time you decide to impulsively go online shopping, you can feel better about your purchase if you consider these organizations. Starting off with some rather well known teams, 4Ocean, Pela, and Converse.
|
4Ocean sells eco-friendly, sustainable jewelry made from reused plastic collected in their endeavors. Their mission statement, written perfectly by wasteadvantagemag.com, is “4ocean's mission is to recover and recycle ocean plastic, advocate for sustainable innovation and inspire people around the world to reduce their consumption of single-use plastic.” For every purchase of one bracelet, they are funded to collect one pound of plastic throughout the ocean. As of last year, 7.7 million pounds of plastic and other marine debris was reported collected. Pela is an eco-friendly company which sells phone cases for android and iphones. They are 100% compostable, and are also working towards plastic-free oceans. Their material has been tested to be safe in the US, Canada, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. It has been reviewed as sustainable and more durable than any other case consumers have used. Pela is another company working towards good, and inspiring others to do so. Converse! Worn by over half of the students in our school, and many others, converse is a great company to buy from. A recent line released called “Converse Renew” is a collection their team created through recycled and sustainable materials. Their mission statement is “Renew is Converse’s commitment to design towards a wasteless future.”. They say, rethink, recycle, renew. And of course, the Jack Purcell, a world champion badminton player and the original creator of converse sneakers has joined the collection. Some other eco-friendly companies worth mentioning: -native shoes (shoes) -elate beauty (cosmetics) -bathing culture (body wash/shower products) -kaffee form (coffee cups) -bambu (dining utencils/dishes) -stasher bags (multiple use food bags) -who gives a crap (toilet paper) -viva terra (home decor/candles) posted 1/11/2021

Shop small because when you do you are supporting someone's dream, you will most likely receive a more personal and authentic experience, and you end up with unique products. By doing this you will know there is much thought and passion going into the process. Creating and running a small business is a large task for the owner, a fun task, but a time consuming one. By purchasing anything, even just one small product you are acknowledging the amount of work gone into the business. Plus if you are shopping locally, you will most likely be able to reach more people around you to let them know just how great the recently discovered small business is! If you know the seller more personally you know that you are receiving a great product in exchange for the seller's genuine excitement.
To find small businesses look on social media, a lot of small business owners market through social media to reach as many people as possible. Popular online businesses might be found on etsy, instagram, facebook, depop etc. You can also simply ask around, I have personally had friends and acquaintances ask me if I have shopped small and if so, where. To help boost the creators business after making a purchase, leave a review, follow their social media, stay up to date with their releases, post pictures of the products to your own social media, and share their account! During this terrible pandemic many have been doing everything imaginable online, online schooling, online meetings, and online shopping. So when online shopping, and you want to buy that sticker, pair of earrings, or clothing item, think about the young creator who is waiting to package their next order. This time can be a great time for growth for online sellers. [Inspired by your very own small biz owner, Jada Clayton (owner of PearBearCo on instagram and etsy)] |

FUN ONLINE EVENTS & ALTERNATIVES

If you are a high school student and you’ve been put into quarantine multiple times, you have probably done all sorts of crafts and activities, and now you need something new to do. Then this may be the article for you…
People all over are getting really creative and taking advantage of the blessing in disguise that technology is. This includes digital groups coming together to do one thing online or people watching live streams to get that in-person feel while simply not being there in person. Much like the well known Zoom program, other more exciting programs have become very popular. Netflix allows viewers to watch movies and shows together while separated, it is called Netflix Party. It's similar to a group face time with the movie playing, that way the movie talkers can make their witty commentary while watching. Along with movie watching, online gaming has become increasingly popular. Gaming was already popular, but the game Among Us became most popular when people could send a simple code to a group of friends and then play together. These are great ways to “gather” a group of people without actually being within 6 feet of each other. Popular influencers, singer/songwriters, actors, etc have been holding online events not only to keep people entertained but to also raise money for charities. Liam Payne, member of the band One Direction, held a livestream show called his “Liam Payne show”, each ticket was $10. He wanted to entertain whilst people were in the comfort of their homes. Niall Horan, also a member of the band One Direction held a concert live at the Royal Albert Hall on November 7th. This was to raise money to support 3 different charities; Alzheimer’s Society, Amnesty International, and Red Cross. One other member of the band One Direction, Louis Tomlinson is going to be holding a livestream concert on December 12 to raise money for FareShare, Crew Nation, Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice, and Stagehand. These events are incredibly fun to watch and you will know that if the tickets are a little pricier, at least it will be going towards a good cause. These creative ways of staying digitally connected are brilliant, but in all seriousness, if this doesn’t interest you, go outside, read a book, create something, and enjoy your solitude. Happy off and on Covid-quarantining. |

Our School Taking Action to Battle Poor Mental Health

EMMA CARVER
EDITORIAL EDITOR Amidst the constant downpour of pandemics, divided countries, and canceled extracurriculars, the storms of life can get overwhelming at times. Stress builds up, emotions are held back, and student´s mental health takes the plunge. Help during such an event can be hard to find and the fear of judgement can prevent boys and girls alike from searching for the desperately needed resources. Our school, Corner Canyon High School, realized such a problem and began to set up multiple ways they can access help. We interviewed one of the counselors at our school, Mrs. Sego, about ways students can find guidance through these times. She informed us that counselors have been reaching out through phone, zoom, or in person, to check up on struggling students. They check students' grades or get tips to be able to realize if a student is struggling. |
Counselors and school administration can receive tips through Safe UT, an app created to aid students in finding professional support. There are multiple options on the app which range from being able to talk or text a therapist to submitting an anonymous tip. It is a great resource if students are fearful or anxious to reach out for help.
Additionally, the school psychologist and school social worker have started a program where they try to talk to kids who are struggling. They created a safe space where all can talk about their issues. This starts in December and all are welcome. The image below is the poster with additional information. Administration has also created a canvas page chalk full of resources. Mrs. Sego speaks for all of Corner Canyon High School Administrators when she told us, ¨[Students] have nothing to be ashamed about… they can always come down and talk to us. That's what we´re here for. They can reach out. There´s no judgement.¨ POSTED 11/18/20 |

With COVID-19 halting many businesses' success, now is the time to get out and support local businesses. Utah is full of local, original, and unique businesses. Two of the closest local restaurants to Corner Canyon High School are Bubble n’ Bean and Side of Aloha.
Bubble n’ Bean, formerly known as Food For Thought, is located on Fort Street next to the Draper Historical Park. This is a great spot for lunch or afternoon snacks. Some of their most popular menu items include Açaí Bowls, Avocado Toast, Lattes and now for a limited time, a pumpkin cookie. It has a 4.5 rating on Google Reviews. Share Henrie says, “Literally, so good. The food was delicious and prepared quickly. The atmosphere was cozy and cute. Jenn Hier says, “I love that you can ride your bike or walk through the drive through and then enjoy your coffee on their cute patio or lie in the park next door! The owner Steve is so nice too!” Another close local restaurant is Side of Aloha. Side of Aloha is located on 12300 S, next to Tide Dry Cleaners. Currently, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Side of Aloha is only offering takeout. They do offer online ordering. Owner, Kiel John D says, “Here you will have a Hawaiian fusion of poke bowls and salads. Whether you're looking for island vibes in the mainland, or you just want to try something new, we’d love to welcome you into our family.” Some of their most popular dishes include Furikake Chicken, Crack Mac, and Poke Bowls. It has a 4.3 stars review on Google Reviews. Lei C claims, “THIS IS THE PLACE TO GO! Wonderful food, great vibe!” These are just two of the hundreds of local businesses in Utah.

CCHS vs covid: What now?
|
BY EVE CANDELL
FASHION & FOODIES EDITOR In recent months, life for students at Corner Canyon has been anything but normal. Of course, all students have been vastly affected by the virus and the precautions surrounding it, seniors have been handed quite the burden for their final year in high school. Students have a myriad of opinions regarding the recent mandates in place surrounding COVID-19. Some prefer taking an online option so they can work at their own pace, or avoid others and effectively social distance. On the other hand, the vast majority of students prefer getting in-class instruction from teachers and seeing friends everyday at school. After polling a vast majority of students at Corner Canyon, about 53% of students confirmed that they prefer in class instruction, based on their own personal experience and preference. Surprisingly, in second place, 31% of students reported that they much prefer online instruction to in person classes, which is contrary to what appears to be most popular by word of mouth. It was interesting to see how the two stacked up. In last place with the fewest number of votes, a hybrid option was chosen at just 16%. This poll was a mix of personal preference, and what the students believed to be smarter in regards to COVID-19 precautions. I asked some students at CCHS to share with me their personal views on the situation and how it is being handled at Corner Canyon, and how they have felt personally affected by it in their lives. We had a range of responses, some more emotional and some more logical than others. Willow Rosenberg (Corner Canyon Senior) shared her thoughts by saying “Feeling like the nation doesn’t care about human life as much as politics and money and not being able to trust my school to follow through on procedures has been challenging during COVID.” It is obvious that Willow’s feelings of disappointment towards how the pandemic was dealt with by students and faculty at Corner Canyon were shared by many other students, one of being Mason Hughes (Corner Canyon Senior) who shared his view “It has been frustrating to watch the school board bow to political pressure and endanger the lives of students and teachers alike.” Although this may be an extreme opinion, it is still important to hear different views from different students at CCHS to show that there is a wide range of views about how the pandemic is being dealt with, however, the Corner Canyon family is hopeful that things will improve over the course of the next months, and faculty is coming down hard on those who refuse to obey the state and district mandates. However, it is clear that overall students are glad to be back in school, and the vast majority of students are glad to be back in class and are doing everything they can to keep it that way. Wear a mask! Be safe. If Corner Canyon bands together, we can beat this virus and come out successful. POSTED 10/22/20 |

CCHS "MY WHY"
CHECK IT OUT!
BY JADA CLAYTON
HOME PAGE EDITOR
HOME PAGE EDITOR
¨CCHS My Why¨ is a new program that the student body officers have put together to understand and learn more about the students. The primary goal is to amplify the stories, voices and successes of the students. Hopefully this will help bring the students closer together, and it will help these incredible people to feel loved and appreciated. Students will grow to learn and love others by connecting with each other with common interests, and through that find friends. During this frustrating pandemic many may be struggling with online schooling; mentally, and/or socially. So if we give new friendships a jump start many will be able to use that and become closer with their peers.
Corner Canyon High School has two thousand, three hundred seventy-six students, and so because of this there will be multiple highlights posted a week. The stories will be posted to the @cchsmywhy instagram, and soon the school facebook page. Follow along!

HARRY FREAKING STYLES
|
BY JADA CLAYTON
HOME PAGE EDITOR One direction star, Harry Styles, has made quite the career for himself. Being a fabulous solo artist and releasing two albums; 2017’s ‘Harry Styles’ album and the 2019 ‘Fine Line’ Album. Along with his appearance in the film Dunkirk in 2017, he is now expected to be in two more upcoming films. My Policeman will begin production next summer. This film is set in the 1990’s showing the relationship of two men while homosexuality was illegal. Styles’ character being Tom, will film alongside actress, Lily James who plays Marion, a humble schoolteacher. The movie will be based off of the 2012 novel written by Bethan Roberts. This film should be right up Styles’ alley since he advocates for the LGBTQ community. He has said “We’re all a little bit gay, aren’t we?” along with waving gay pride flags at concerts. This man has proven his support for many things but his support to LGTBQ will shine during this film.
Don’t Worry Darling is another movie production expected to involve Harry Styles. He will be replacing Shia LeBeouf due to scheduling conflicts. The movie is directed by Olivia Wilde and co-stars actress Florence Pugh and actor Chris Pine. Styles will take on the role of Pugh’s “Picture Perfect Husband” Jack. The plot is located in California deserts as an isolated and Utopian community in the 1950’s. The movie is considered to be a thriller film and is about a housewife who has a reality switch with disturbing truths discovered. Styles will hopefully “break a leg” and steal the show of this upcoming film. From beginning his career on the X-Factor at 16 years old in 2010, to being in a band, starting a solo career and being an advocate to many while having a large fanbase, there is no doubt that Harry freaking Styles is taking the world by storm.

Netflix documentary-
¨The social dilemma¨
|
BY JADA CLAYTON
HOME PAGE EDITOR ¨The Social Dilemma¨ just dropped on Netflix, it is currently trending fourth in the top ten. This documentary is told from the point of view of large company ex presidents, leaders, developers, creators, and influencers from Pinterest, Instagram, Facebook, Google, etc, to prove the point that social media has large effects on us. These multimillion dollar companies have no larger goal than to make profit off of the consumer or the user of the app. The companies do not think past the larger picture, so this creates mental instability for people.
The way that these programs work is they put something on your device that interests you then if you interact with it you will receive something similar in the near future. Advertisement is being given, and whether or not you take it is the product. But what is actually being sold in this scheme is the information you give the advertising company, which then sells that to the company they advertised. There's a quote from the documentary production that says ¨If you're not paying for the product, then you are the product¨. For example, if the program is a free program and all you have to do is make an account, chances are pretty good that your information is being sold for advertisement. 
|
The people from these companies talk about how different apps and programs are geared towards different age groups and people. The way that different ages will react to one app or another is different and so they account for the different views and beliefs of many individuals.
One other tricky aspect of this is that when you are being fed one type of information, someone is also being fed information but it may be the complete opposite information than you. This is what causes arguments and large physical impacts on society. People of one cultural belief will do something to spite the other side of the argument. This will become a larger issue if there isn´t change soon, but there is optimism for change. Then the title ¨The Social Dilemma¨ begins to make sense, as a whole, collective society there needs to be a want and desire to not destroy or ruin the companies but to change and better them.
