Div Bharti High School Student January/February 2026 Chapter 1 Zach Bennet, a calculus student with a slightly niche quirk just got home. What quirk you might ask? Well, let's not get ahead of ourselves yet… Anyways, he put his bag on the floor against the wall and went downstairs to grab some food. “It really is a bummer that I couldn't be at school longer…” said Zach, but little did he know what was going to happen. You see his quirk was that he really liked his calculator,

Anonymous High School Student November/December 2025                    Physics is one of the most important sciences because it helps us understand how the world works. Even though some parts of it can be challenging, physics explains everyday things we usually don’t think about. From how a ball moves through the air to why our phones can send messages instantly, physics is behind it all. One reason physics matters is that it teaches us the basic rules of nature. Ideas like

Daphne Baumgartner High School Student November/December 2025 According to Johnathan Rothwell, PhD, 51% of teenagers spend at least 4 hours on social media a day1. That totals to 60 days a year of non-stop scrolling, chatting, posting, reposting, and with how social media has progressed over the past decade, so much more. “Brainrot” and “Doomscrolling” (or dopamine-scrolling), are just a couple of the internet buzzwords used to describe this phenomenon had experts and parent

Jack Griepentrog High School Student November/December 2025 Chapter 1 Harvest, or get harvested.- Unknown. It’s been a week and Stefan isn’t back. His short journey outside the wall has left me wondering where he really went. Mother says he went to Grandma’s, but that's not true. How would that justify him breaking our number one rule: ‘Never leave the shed.’ Father has told me this a billion times. I'm tired of hearing it. Maybe they told him that it was safe now, or somethi

Ayden Gallegos High School Student November/December 2025 Carbon dioxide poisoning in Mr. Kamman's class Students in algebra classes with Mr. Kamman tend to get tired and sometimes fall asleep in his classes. Some of these cases can be exempt due to early day tiredness but the real culprit is Carbon dioxide poisoning. As normal humans we exhale carbon dioxide, and with multiple classes packed with students in a room with poor ventilation the carbon dioxide can build up and ca

Anonymous High School Student November/December 2025 Throughout history, empires have been powerful but eventually collapsed. They were successful for several reasons, like strong leadership and wealth. An empire ran smoothly as long as it had a capable and influential ruler. Taxes paid by the people were very important for the empire’s survival. Armies protected the empire, and the funds were useful in wars and for expanding territory. Empires like this lasted the longest be

Anonymous High School Student November/December 2025 Biodiversity is how diverse an ecosystem is. There are three main types to note when talking about biodiversity: genetic diversity (the range of characteristics), species diversity (how many different species exist and their abundance of), and habitat diversity (how many are present in an ecosystem). These factors are all crucial for how an ecosystem responds to stressors. While natural disruptions to an ecosystem are gener

Anonymous High School Student November/December 2025 Evaluate the extenuate to which environmental impacts of urbanization on biodiversity and ecosystem services. Urbanization severely impacts environments and the living things in the environment by multiple factors like habitat loss, fragmentation, pollution, and biodiversity loss. This leads to the decline in the number of both native species and invasive species. Urbanization also depletes the environment of its natural sy

Divyansh Bharti High School Student November/December 2025 Part 1 With the A/C turned up to the max, Adrian was just sitting there in the living room. The world outside was so burning hot you could cook an egg. It was about 90 degrees Fahrenheit even in the dome that encompassed his city. Energy had become an incredibly valuable resource; it was so valuable, in fact, that only the “well-off” could afford it. Water was also out of the question. Most of it had evaporated during

Anonymous High School Student November/December 2025 Neon flickers on wet pavement streets, Footsteps chase echoes that nobody meets. Concrete sighs, steel bones groan, City lights burn, but I walk alone. Smoke curls from alleyways like fingers, Grasping at coats and ankles, Whispering names I don’t know, Calling me to places I should avoid. Windows stare with glassy eyes, Mirroring faces that shift and leer. A shadow detaches from the brick, Moves too fast, too human, yet no

Tyler Heckman High School Student October 2025 I first noticed Draco Malfoy staring at me in the library. Or maybe it was the astronomy tower. I can’t remember, the lighting is always the same shade of disappointed candlelight. His gray eyes—flat as puddles after a half-hearted rain—flickered down to my kneecaps. Yes, my kneecaps. No one had ever gazed at them with such intensity before. I pulled my scarf tighter around my throat. It was green. Or was it maroon? Actually, now

He couldn’t believe he was about to go on a date–wait, no…he couldn’t call it that. Was Logan even gay? At least Bi? He had no idea.

Daphne Baumgartner High School Student October 2025 It was August 13, the first day of school. Not just school, but senior year; the last year all 53 students would spend together at Gaymann Academy. Everyone filed into their seats right as the bell rang, and Mr. Brokeknees rose from his chair. “Good morning, class. Now before we get started, I’ll put the seating chart up on the board; this should only take about six or seven minutes.” “SIX SEVEEEENNNN!” exclaimed Yadiel Ca

Anonymous High School Student August/September 2025 The library had always felt like a refuge to me, the one place in the castle where silence wasn’t strange but expected. That night it was quieter than usual, the kind of quiet that makes you feel like you’re trespassing simply by breathing. I slipped between the rows, fingers trailing along cracked spines, until I spotted him. Draco Malfoy. He sat alone at the far table, a single lamp casting pale gold across the open book i

Located in the thoracic cavity and protected by the ribcage, the lungs are divided into lobes – three on the right and two on the left. Their structure includes branching airways (bronchi and bronchioles) and millions of tiny air sacs called alveoli, where gas exchange occurs. Each al
