My name is Aleia Johnson, and I am currently a Junior at Mayo High School. I’m involved with Mayo Girls Swim and Dive; I swim for the varsity heats. I’m also a member of Mayo’s own International Club.

Journalism is important to the world because it provides key information on critical issues, common occurrences, and even everyday life. It’s written by the people, for the people; thus, it provides a human look on situations.

I hope to learn how to make my writing more in-depth and interesting. I believe that it would also be very beneficial for me to learn how to take better quality photos.
