October 3rd Now that school is in session, the halls of the KCS Lakeshore campus definitely sound different. The constant construction noises of saws, hammers and rock music playing on the worker's radios have now been replaced with laughter, the tuning of instruments, sliding chairs and the frustration of learning new locker combinations!On July 1...

 I am a self-professed book lover. Secretly, I would love to find a job where they paid me to read all day. Reading takes me to places I will never go and puts me in the minds of characters I would have trouble understanding otherwise. Reading didn't always come easily for me; I was a late starter in my reading journey and spent more time in t...
