Letter from the Editors
First of all, I am extremely grateful for our wonderful editorial team — Andrea, Vanessa, Catherine, Anouk, and Lucas — everything we have done within the St. Marker would not have happened without you guys! Also, thank you to Ms. Plimpton for all the support and guidance you provided to the team. As a writer and editor of the St. Marker for four years since my Freshman year, this platform was a space that taught a lot of lessons for me; how I can lead, write, and in the end, express myself as who I am. It was a great honor to take part in this team, and I am thrilled to see all the amazing work our new editorial team will carry on starting next year. Please enjoy our Prize Day Issue, and stay tuned for the upcoming issues for the next academic year!

St. Marker has a special place in my heart: it's one of the few groups I have been part of throughout my entire time at St. Mark's. I have outgrown my old self as a writer, friend, and leader in news writing. I am so grateful that St. Marker has rewarded me with the opportunities to express myself and know the same cabal of people who share my vision for creating a community like St. Marker. As a soon-to-be alumna, I hope St. Marker will become a stronger presence in our student body!

I would like to thank my team, Hannah, Andrea, Catherine, Lucas, and Anouk for their dedication and hard work in making running the St. Marker smooth and fun, and I am grateful for having such a great team of writers and editors to create our content. As a member since Freshman year, it has been an honor to dedicate my four years to writing, a passion of mine. I hope to continue such interests into college, and I wish my writers the best of luck!
