Dear Archer, I’m writing this to you because, as much as it hurts to say it, this is my last week of high school. While the rest of the school is buzzing with excitement for summer (the beach! Ice cream! No school!), I am picturing leaving you for the last time as a student. It’s been seven years, A...

Over the weekend of March 11 and 12, I went to Tijuana, Mexico where I, alongside an incredible group of people, helped finish a branch of an orphanage called Casa Hogar Eben-Ezer. The group consisted of only three women — my friend, Lulu Cerone '17, her mom and me. Going into the weekend, I prepared...

Since middle school, I’ve heard whispers of a notorious English class at Archer that is both loved and feared by seniors: Postmodern American Literature, otherwise known as simply “Pomo.” Asking seniors about the class would only prompt them to screech, “Don’t take it!” or to announce with...
Column: The Dish on Pescetarianism

My family eats anything and everything, from giant burgers to steamed kale, and everything in between. So it was only natural when Lent, a Christian period of reflection that asks you to give up something in your life from Ash Wednesday to Easter, came around, to give up one of the best ingredients in...

Ask any of my friends and they will tell you the same thing: Anna loves coffee. Coffee is a lifestyle, a delicious, wonderful thing filled with the joy and hope of tomorrow in an obtainable-today package. The smell of my mom making her morning cup is sometimes the only thing that can drag me from my...
Column: Good bye, debate; good riddance, February!

Let’s be honest here. February can sometimes be a slump. It’s not quite Spring Break, but it's also not close enough to Winter Break for us to be well-rested. No one would ever venture to call February nearly the end of the year, and yet it lacks the excitement of the earlier months. There a...

During the Diversity Conference, I had the honor of participating in the Upper School microaggressions panel, where I spoke about my personal experience with racist behaviors and remarks and discussed ways to combat them. Hearing from other panelists, who were mostly girls of color, was especi...
Column: An Exploration of Valentine’s Day
By Stella Gage, Columnist

Filed under COLUMNISTS, VOICES
Growing up, Valentine’s Day has meant a number of different thing to me. When I was younger, the holiday was a day for everyone to exchange candy grams, spend time with friends and maybe even finally tell your crush that you liked them with an overly cheesy card. Over the years, however, the inno...
Column: How to Keep Your New Year’s Food Resolutions
By Anna Allgeyer, Columnist

Filed under COLUMNISTS, FOOD, VOICES
As the end of January approaches, for many, so does regret season. Memories of New Year's Eve flash back, of resolutions written down in notebooks, shared with friends or perhaps drilled into your mind over and over so that all you can think is "I will never drink caffeine again." And now? Your New...

Centuries ago, I was an eleven year old embarking on my first year at Archer as a sixth grader. Okay. That’s an exaggeration -- it was only seven years ago -- but times have changed! Back then, Obama was our president, Instagram wasn’t popular among Archer students, teens all watched “Glee,” a...
