RJ Cruz, Staff Writer
Hello! My name is Ryan Cruz and I am currently a senior here at Central. I have proudly been a part of CLC’s Orange and Black newspaper for 2 years now. Personally, I find that I have no specific writing interests. For the newspaper, I prefer covering current events both in and out of the school. One thing I do love is writing stories. There’s nothing more exciting than creating your own tales with a paper and pen. Writing is one of my favorite things to do because it’s something you have control of and can hold so much power when done right. Aside from Newspaper Club, I am involved in other clubs and activities such as Student Council, Tiger Buddies, the VEX Robotics team, Science Olympiad, Symphonic Band, Jazz Band, and Senior Mentors. The only way to truly experience high school is to get involved with all the school has to offer in terms of clubs and sports. Crystal Lake Central is one of the best high schools out there and the Newspaper Club helps show why!
