15AP Calculus
“Definitely eating all the pancakes with butter and syrup was the best part.” Brad Meyers (12)
AP Calculus students were given the opportunity to participate
in the annual pancake project in which they used mathematical
formulas to determine the ingredients needed for their recipe.
Kelly Rayburn, one of the two AP calculus teachers said, “We do
this project in the beginning of the year to help build bonds between
students so they feel comfortable making study groups throughout
the rest of the year. Also, most kids never make pancakes truly from
scratch anymore and this project forces them to get outside their
comfort zone.”
The students were given equations to solve in order to find the
measurements of the ingredients. Jessica Pierce (12) said “By
calculating the needed ingredients, I learned how to apply calculus
to my everyday life.”
The project incorporated eggs, flour, milk, blueberries, sugar,
baking powder, and salt to achieve the end result of nine 4-inch
pancakes. Students were also required to take pictures of each step
and put together a creative poster displaying their process.
While this project was an optional assignment, many students
chose to participate to earn extra credit and have fun with their
classmates.
Tyler Heath (12) said, “My favorite part of the project was
spending time with friends and then getting to eat the pancakes
that surprisingly tasted delicious.”
Many AP Calculus students agreed that this project has been the
most fun part of class so far and are looking forward to everything
else to come in this demanding course.
“It took us an hour to make the pancakes and create our poster.” Emily Evangelista (11)
“My group’s pancakes turned out to be delicious!” Isabella Mighell (11)
“My favorite part was eating the
pancakes.” Darrion Williams (12)
“It was cool to see how Calculus
relates to the real world.” Savannah
Walker (12)
“I enjoyed this project because it turned math
into something interesting.”
Connor Welsh (12)
“This project with my friends helped
me to better understand limits.” Marissa Sandler
(11)
“I learned how important accurate
measurements are in baking.” Jackie Faircloth
(12)
Calculus Students Earn Extra Credit Making Pancakes
Recipe for Success
The Final Product
“This extra credit project was worth it because It was a good mix of Calculus and food.” Danielle Scott (12)
“I learned about limits and how to make pancakes from scratch which is something not many people know how to do.” Toria Fidler (12)
The Presentation
“I’ve never made pancakes from scratch before, but after this project I have figured out a good recipe and can’t wait to make them again!” Lydia Kriseman (12)
1. Isabella Mighell (11) and Jessica Pierce (12) mix ingredients to create
their pancakes. Surprisingly, the math component wasn’t the most challenging
part of the project. Pierce said, “The hardest part was not burning the
pancakes.” 2. After calulating the correct amount of eggs needed for the pancakes, Carolina Ramos (12) adds them to the mix. She
worked on the recipe for about an hour. Ramos said, “This project helped me
better understand how to calculate and figure limits.”

August/September: Calculus Pancakes
I created this Acedemics spread that covered the extra credit project that the AP Calculus classes did during the months of August/September. I creat-ed 3 mods to showcase each portion of the project. This spread was chal-lenging for me because it was my first spread as an editor. However, I was proud that I incorporated many different groups who did this project.

45Stress
Between overwhelming schedules packed with AP classes, standardized tests, as well as tons of after school activities and social events, these students still successfully managed to do it all.
Tyler Powell (11), who balanced two baseball games a week, five days of practice, an SAT tutor, and four rigorous AP classes, explained that “As the year goes on you learn to better manage your time and find room for everything.”
While Matthew Canella (11), further described his stress with up to five hours of football practice a day, his six AP classes, HCC dual enrollment and studying for the
SAT as “insurmountable.” Many students also turned to various tutoring methods
for studying not only for the SAT, but also their intense classes. Students studied various ways including with friends, a private tutor, at Starbucks or Panera Bread, or at the library on the weekends.
The SAT took place on the morning of Oct. 11, the same day as the Homecoming dance, and students scrambled from the testing room to hair and makeup appointments doing their best to relax before the long night.

Stressed SuccessforStandardized tests, involvement, and homecoming plans cause for a stressful time of the year
Kelsey DiMisa (12) and Emalee Herrera (12) go from taking the SAT in the morning to Homecoming later that night. Taking their test was worth while enabling them to relax at homecoming. “I was stressed during the test because I kept thinking of my homecoming plans, but I was glad I had a stress free night,” DiMisa said.
John Stevenson (11) arrives at school bright and early ready to take the SAT on Homecoming morning. It was his first time taking the test so he was anxious to do well. “Halfway through I was stressing because I realized I forgot to get a corsage for my date,” Stevenson said.
Stressful Schedules
1. Lucas Reddick (11) spends many hours at Panera Bread preparing for his first time taking the SAT. He realized how much time it actually takes to feel confident going into the test. “The time I spent studying payed off because it helped decrease my test anxiety,” Reddick said. 2. Gianna Cacciatore (11) practices math problems in order to ensure a solid score. The pressure of standardized testing has increased tremendously, so she focused on correcting each mistake. Cacciatore said, “Math is my weakest section so I spend about 30 minutes a night.”

October: Stress for Success
I created this Academics spread that covered the stress that came during the month of October. I did a mod that covered the stress that came with students taking the SAT in the morning and then getting ready for homecoming that night. I also created a mod that showcased stressful schedules from students involved in different categories. Through making this spread I learned how to cut pictures out for the first time by using photoshop. I also learned how to use the drop color tool.

77Great American Teach In
The Man in Black
Getting the Story12 hours on, 12 hours off.
That’s the typical work day of
Kellie Messano, even on holidays.
That means no Thanksgiving
off, no Christmas break, and no
random days off from work. Why?
News never stops.
Working as a Fox 13 journalist
is an eventful and stressful job.
The yearbook staffers learned from
their key note speaker during this
year’s Great American Teach-In.
Speaking to a class of high school
journalists, Messano emphasized
the great responsibility the staff
has in recording history and
further related it to her job in
which she has the opportunity to
record history every single day. Lily
Ann Guagliardo (11) said “Mrs.
Messano gave us great advice on
what it takes to pursue a career in
journalism. It was really interesting
to hear about how she found story
ideas and translated them into
news.”
The class was extremely
interested in Messano’s
description, especially when
Messano received an instant news
alert during the presentation. “She
was passionate about what she
does and it was super inspiring to
see an exciting job in journalism,”
Katie Martin (11) said.
1.With eyes glued to the front of the room, students are interested to hear about the exciting life of an FBI agent. Before the presentation started, the room was filled with chatter about their ideas of what an FBI agent’s life is like. Marc Weinstein said “It was surprising to learn that they have to live a life with danger around every corner.” 2. FBI agent Mike Brady shocks students with an opportunity to hold real FBI cre-dentials. Students imagined what it would take to become an agent and get those sacred credentials. Nicholas Azpeitia said “It was cool learning that really anyone can become an FBI agent. All it takes is hard work and dedication.”
1. In a classroom filled with aspiring journalists, Kellie Messano described
a typical workday as a FOX 13 journal-ist. The yearbook staffers listen closley
to all her tips and advice. “It was so interestinghearing from someone with 1st hand experience in the business,
especially simce we are all in the process of publishing the Yearbook.” Hannah
Smith (11)2. The yearbook staffers attentivley
listen to Messano depict her hectic work-day. After a supplimantal FOX 13 video
plays, they write down important tips for sucess. “Mrs. Messano really opened my eyes to a field of journalism that was new
to me.” Rachael Wienstock (11)
What do you want to be
when you grow up? Mike Brady
took time on Thursday, Nov.
20 to educate students on the
exciting life as an FBI agent.
Students watched with
captivated eyes as Brady
explained what it took to be an
agent. Anna Dudley (9) said,
"I want to be an FBI agent
because it would be fun to have
a job not just at a desk."
Students gasped in
excitement as Brady described
a car chase where he popped
a hub cap off his car. “It was
pretty cool hearing that things
that happen in movies actually
happen!" Brooke Mikus (9) said
after the presentation. Brady
also provided students with
insight regarding controversial
current events including phone
tapping and the presence of
social media. Samuel Celne
(9) said, "Now I know to
be a lot more careful about
what information I put on the
internet.”
At the end of the day, when
the question ‘who wants to
be an FBI agent?’ was asked,
dozens of excited hands shot in
the air with new found curiosity,
respect, and knowledge of life
as an FBI agent.
If you were an FBI agent what would you have with you at all times?
“Journalism is a rough industry to put yourself into. It is super competive and most times you have to be able to react on a moments notice.” said aspiring journalist Emily Greiwe (11). After attending National journalism conferences the past 2 years in both Washington DC

and Boston, Greiwe knew she would love to pursue a career in Journalism. At these conferences she was given the opportunity to talk with other students who shared her common passion. She is currently a writer on the Pep O’ Plant staff and enjoys seeing journalists in action such as Kellie Messano who came in to share about her career. “I want to leave my mark on history.” Greiwe said.

November: Great Amerian Teach- In
I created this Acedemics spread that covered the Great American-Teach In during the month of November. I created clever headlines to go with each copy. I included a mod that talked about how a student journalism learned from a real life journalist and aspired to continue on the path of journalism. This spread isn’t my favorite, but I am proud that I was able to depict this day in an interesting way.

With the holiday season around the corner, chorus students anticipated the 20th annual Madrigal dinner. Students spent a month preparing for their performance of “The Snow Queen” along with an all day dress rehearsal the day before.
Chris Harris (12) said, “I would run the lines in my head during class, I’d even act out entire scenes in the car; but the hardest part by far was learning how to actually do it when the spotlight came on.”
Snowflakes lined the walls and wassail filled the cups during the three performances on Saturday Dec. 6 and 7. “The Snow Queen” told the tale of two sisters, one being a worried girl trying to find love, and another who had the power
to freeze the entire town of Arendelle. Whilst songs were sang about “letting it go” and a snowman wanting summer, the traditional Boars Head was served followed by the medieval dessert of flaming pudding.
The entertainment ended with a concert performance, and an interactive performance in which the guests joined the choir in singing the famous carol, “Silent Night.”
Olivia Robb (9) said, “My favorite part was seeing the reaction of the audience- it made our hardwork worth it.”
The effort put forth by the students was evident, the audience showed their appreciation by giving them a standing ovation for all three consecutive shows.
Ice Ice Baby 1. Two honorary members of men’s chorus present the wassail. The cup then flamed from dry ice. “It was really interesting to be a part of the tradition and being able to work with dry ice and flames,” Nathan Smith (10) said.2. Women’s chorus preforms “All I Want for Christmas is You”. The girls then each sang solos. “The whole cast put so much effort into the show and it really showed,” Natalie Leonard (10) said.
Madrigals Turns
Bruce Yost sets the scene for a Fox 13 segment by describing the hard work put into the show, as well as promoting its date, time, location, and stellar entertain-ment. The news caster, Charlie Belcher, encouraged all Tampa families looking for a weekend activity to buy a ticket to the performance. “The cast had to arrive at school around 5:30 in the morning. We just made it up as we went along and it turned out to be a fantastic opportunity” (Bruce Yost, Choral Director).
“Hi I’m Olaf and I like warm hugs!” Andrew VanWert (11)
“Wesselton! It’s Wesselton!” Trevor Barksdale (11)
“If only somebody loved you.” Augie Castellana (10)
“Christmastime!” Alex Muscaro (12)
“I’m awkward, you’re gorgeous...wait what?” Rachel Goding (12)
“The cold never bothered me anyway.” Jamie Karr (12)
“No singing now!”Michael Swanick (12)
“You’re getting married!” Rachel Patterson (12)
Charlie Belcher, a Fox 13 news reporter, is crowned “king” by the cast of the Madrigals on the primetime morning news. Belcher was asked to come feature the Plant High Chorus cast on his segment “Charley’s World” during “Good Day Tampa Bay” before their opening show. “They really know how to treat you like a king here at Plant High School” (Charlie Belcher, Fox 13).
The women’s cast, dressed in full costume, eagerly waits to film various seg-ments highlighting their show. The students filmed for almost a total of five hours. “It was really cool and worth it to be on live TV and a great way to get the word out about Madrigal dinners” (Ella Fernandez 11).

December: Madrigals
I created this Acedemics spread that covered Chorus’ annual Madrigals during the month of December. I created a mod that showcased Chorus being filmed on TV. I also was able to showcase the major roles in this production with quotes from the play itself! I am proud to say that I took my staffers to the Madrigals show in order for them to fully experience it to make the copy legit.

This is my senior ad that I designed myself. I carefully chose a layout that would fit my pictures in the best way possible. Because the senior ads were due at the beginning of the year, creating my senior ad allowed me to play around with and learn how to place photos and fit them proportionat-ley. I also realized how important it is to be aware of how many picas are inbetween each picture.

The End.
