Megan McPheely, Editor

I’m a senior who is  planning to major in  some form of  journalism at college. I  was born in Greenville,  South Carolina and  moved to Melbourne,  Australia, where I lived  for four years with my  family. I go to Bay  View, Michigan every summer where I am a camp counselor in the morning for five and six year olds and I also teach tennis in the afternoons. I have grown up around soccer, although I only play tennis now. I have two older brothers Gregg and Andrew. When I graduate from GACS, I will have attended the school for five and a half years.

I am a junior and  a second year  reporter on the  Spartan Spear-It.  In addition to  newspaper, at  school I am  involved in Beta  Club, drama,  mission club, and  I’m a small group  leader. My  favorite subject is  Spanish, my  favorite color is  yellow, and my  favorite food is  Italian. I love  hanging out with  friends and  family, playing  with my beagle,  and watching  movies. I am  super excited for  all the insanely awesome new things we’re doing for newspaper this year!

Rebecca McLean, Senior

My name’s Rebecca. I’m 16 years old and I’m a very enthusiastic senior! My favorite movie is Grease and I love the bands U2 and The White Stripes. I’ve been a swimmer since I was six. I also love to dance although I’m horrible at it. I was born in California but we moved to Georgia when I was six. My parents are from Scotland and it’s my favorite place although I really love London, too! There are lots of places I hope to visit in my lifetime. This is my second year on the Spartan Spear It staff and I’m very excited about it this year!
