The final Unified basketball game was against Rancho San Juan on Tuesday, April 29. According to Athletic Director Jose Gil, this program shines a light on students who can be considered “different” and puts them in a position where they can feel included. “I think it's my funnest time of the year," Gil said. "These kids will spin with the ball, run with the ball, you know…everything goes, and it's their show.”

Freshman year to now - similar styles but different mindset regarding how I perceive my self expression.
Developing My Style
These are examples of my work - a fresh flower bouquet and an eternal bouquet. When I first started my floral business, I spent days handcrafting ribbon rose bouquets; each one made with patience and precision.

Working with real blooms felt more alive and effortless, taking just hours rather than days. Now, creating natural rose bouquets isn’t just my work; it's where my creativity feels most at home.

Player Down - Senior finalist Geraldine Sierra eliminates senior Isabel Torres during the second round. “I came up with the idea of posing like this because I would see all the sent pictures of people standing next to each other and thought this pose was funnier,” Torres said.
