Hannah Shaffer, Managing Editor

My name is Hannah Shaffer and I am currently in eighth grade. This is my second year on the newspaper staff. My position is Managing Editor. Some things I enjoy doing are reading, running and volunteering. I really love riding horses and working with them. I am involved in a few clubs and they are Drama Club, Math Counts and Newspaper. I am involved in four sports and they are Track & Field, XC, Softball, and Wrestling. In the future I would like to get a job where I can communicate with people, because I love talking and socializing with people.
