Before going on a 1.2 mile hike to a nearby beach, the Environmental Club did a stretching circle led by the guides from the Ventana Wilderness Alliance to help prevent any injuries from the walk.

Right before a track meet against Salinas high, Student Athletic trainers Rebecca Jimenez and Kristine Saldo tape the ankles of junior Angel Perez and sophomore Flor Amaya to prepare them for their meet. “It's pretty difficult to do the work and if the patient isn't cooperating as well. It’s also harder when they’re more hurt because they tend to be more sensitive when taping, but the process of the taping is to allow them to feel comfort and support on their ankle,” Jimenez said.

Math 2 teacher, Pedro Ramirez, teaches a lesson on trigonometry using real-world examples. “It gives a lot of access to a lot of students to get more education as far as it goes, like to get college credit before they even go into a college,” Ramirez said. “Also helps decrease the equity gap we have with other more economically advantaged areas.

Construction Tech teacher Michael Blasheck will retire after 45 years. He plans to spend his retirement having small hobbies, gardening, and staying physically fit, so he can enjoy retirement. “The bottom point is when you get old in life, you still want some life left to enjoy.”
Constructing the next chapter
While students work on their research paper, Dr. Gutierrez goes over senior Ariana Acevedo Mejia’s introduction. She was able to clarify with Dr. Gutierrez if her introduction was suitable for this specific task. “The research papers are the biggest assignments in our class and so I wanted to clarify any doubts my students had,” Gutierrez said.

Student trainers provide vital support for athletes
Although being a student athlete can be stressful when it comes to balancing school, sports, and work, it can be a rewarding experience. Senior Jonathan Murillo Carillo managed to balance all three when he tried out wrestling for the first time this year. “ “When it comes to family events during the week I needed to sacrifice that because of volleyball games or wrestling meets to be there for the team,” Murillo said. “The only regret I have is not joining the sport sooner. I met so many awesome people and am sad it’s all coming to an end.”
Being an athlete means more than just playing a game
At the K-Bell Invitational, junior Fernando Herrera ran the 3200m. Herrera placed 7th with 9:40.39 minutes. “Munoz and I have been talking about that this year I was going to try for that two mile,” Herrera said. “The goal for that race was to hit 9:40, which is exactly what I hit. This was a 16 second PR from last season. I got the sixth fastest time in school history.”
Growing pains
Overcoming both physical and mental hurdles, junior Marley Llamas runs 22.01 seconds in the 100m hurdles against North Salinas. “It was a tough race but I was able to push through it,” she said.
Hoping to rise to the challenge
Once fearing the 100 fly, Leonardo Mariscal stepped up when his senior teammate graduated. “I can’t do it easy, but I’m better than I was before. That’s basically what got me into the 100 fly, making it my favorite event because it allows me to challenge myself,” he said.

Blurring the line
This is one of my stair master sessions. It took me an hour to complete it, and after that, I followed it with a walk on a treadmill. It’s an exercise I’ve been able to follow through with that has worked for me.
Building Better Habits
In this picture, I am blending out my blush in an upward direction. When I wear certain hairstyles, I like to apply makeup at an upwards angle to sculpt my face.
