My name is Natalynn Schwing, and I am a senior at Greater Nanticoke Area High School. I’ve been a student here since I was in the 6th grade. This is my first year in Journalism. I’m looking forward to spending the school year in this class.  I am involved in many clubs at this school. Some of those clubs are Key Club, Student Council, Chorus, and Board games club. I’m also in a college prep-program called Upward Bound. When I’m not volunteering or studying for my future, I am usually reading novels. My favorite genre is fantasy. I also enjoy taking my dogs on walks in my free time.  After high school, I plan to attend college. I hope to obtain my Bachelor of Science in Nursing. After getting my degree I hope to work as a registered nurse. I plan on specializing in pediatrics.

My name is Sophia Gronka and this is my last year of high school. I moved to Nanticoke at the beginning of my sophomore year. I'm in Key Club and Drama Club because I love getting involved in school and helping out others. One of my biggest hobbies is refurbishing. I love taking a vintage piece to fix it up and give it some life again. In my opinion, after all that work it's the best trophy you can get. My other passions are reading, music, and fashion. I love the vintage 2000s look and especially the music. I am taking AP Literature this year because I love reading and challenging myself to find deeper meanings in important and noteworthy books. In the future, I want to study forensics and psychology, and possibly law too. I would love to go to West Virginia University because my sister goes there. They have an amazing forensics program and the campus is beautiful. Another goal for my future is to keep my side hustle of refurbishing antiques, it is an awesome hobby to have to make extra money on the side. A really big goal of mine is to buy a house in Naples Florida where I have family there. I have been visiting there my whole life so in the future, I would love to have a vacation home there.
