Ashley Falk has been a part of the theater community for many years before she entered Severna Park High School. Now as lighting director, Falk has gained a lot of responsibility and joy out of having a leadership role in each production, one in which she hopes to hand over to another young student when she graduates. “I would recommend [that] anyone after me should not be afraid to take charge,” Falk said. “There needs to be a leader in the department and it really helps everything to run smoothly.”

SPHS students have the opportunity to intern at dozens of different businesses and organizations in their senior year. They have to fulfill a required number of hours during the year to get credit, so it becomes a staple during their last year of high school. But many students pick a field they are interested in and could potentially lead to their future career. “I’m debating between physical therapy, chiropractic, and dentistry,” senior Carina Zelaya said. Her internship at a chiropractors office gives her the opportunity to learn about her field of interest, which is exactly the goal of the student internships.
