Have you ever wondered about the history of our school? To learn more about our school’s past, we have to rewind almost 40 years to the beginning of Murphy, or Holy Cross High School, as it was first named. It wasn’t until 1999 that the campus was moved to where it is now…Continue Reading


A Criminal Niche

By: Ian Phillips

Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, many of the facilities that came to represent the country during the Cold War were abandoned. While still remaining in the files of government buildings, the structures of socialist realism and relics of life behind the “Iron Curtain” fell into disrepair. From the ruins of these institutions rose a niche hobby comprised of criminals…Continue Reading

It is the summer of 2020. The lockdown is in full swing as the world sits at home, uncertain and isolated. As a new cycle of blockbuster games like Cyberpunk 2077 and Halo Infinite become delayed, many gamers turn to older games in order to entertain themselves. Titanfall 2, once dead and buried, is about to see the light of day once again… Continue Reading

Video games, at the end of the day, are meant to be fun. We play them on our phones during a bus ride, on our consoles after school, and on our computers as a way to break from the struggles of life. They let us escape from reality. In 2016, however, it seemed that for one genre of games, creating a fun experience was the last thing their publishers had in mind… Continue Reading

Many students know who Martin Luther King is. Many of you may know about the civil rights movement, and the drastic change that African Americans have made for themselves. The Black heroes that have been named numerous times, just like MLK, Sojourner Truth, Rosa Parks, Harriet Tubman, Frederick Douglass and many more. One thing I like to reflect on this very day is the Black lives that had to pay for the injustice that our heroes had fought to change… Continue Reading

When I was eight, I refused to set up a lemonade stand like the other kids on my block.

On Saturday mornings, I would tiptoe out of my room and stealthily collect paper, scissors, pens, and crayons. The crisp snip of my scissors cutting the white cardstock, the waxy release of a crayon pulled from the paper, and the squeak of a marker would bring my cards to life, and every Saturday, Holly Cards Inc. grew in inventory… Continue Readin

The AMHS Fine Arts was no exception; with the cancellation of the musical ‘Bright Star’ at the start of the pandemic, it wasn’t clear what the department could do this year while still following COVID guidelines. Usually, AMHS puts on a fall play in November. This year, live theater is virtually impossible. That was until Brent Stainer presented the idea of doing a movie in place of a play… Continue Reading

Most people in the world today have at least heard of chess. I trust many of my readers even know the rules of the game. Chess has been around for 1,500 years, and those who love it are located all across the globe. No board game has ever been so popular, so studied and theorized by intellectuals, and so competed internationally. Even today, chess is popular. Netflix has released the show “The Queen’s Gambit” about Beth Harmon’s chess career which has broken records in views. With all this in mind, let us dive into our exploration of what chess is… Continue Reading

2020 has been nothing short of challenging and exhausting for everyone. Job losses and unemployment rates have skyrocketed, traditional graduations from the majority of schools across the state have been shut down since March, and very few schools are back to in-person learning full time, as Covid cases are up and rising. This year has… well, sucked for everyone. A topic that has been discussed rather frequently is the mental health of students and how they’ve been impacted this past year. I’ve had the opportunity to reach out to some students and the AMHS counseling team to get their input… Continue Reading

For the last six months or so, COVID-19 has captured the attention and fear of many people. Experiencing a pandemic which brings about a virtual global shutdown is certainly new to us all. Obvious to all readers, I am sure, is the fact that this is not the first pandemic to ever occur, and it will certainly not be the last. Nevertheless, I’d like to take a look at one of the deadliest pandemics of the past – the Black Death – and contrast it with the situation we are in now. As you read, try to imagine yourself in Europe during this time… Continue Reading
