Asilyan: One completed chapter doesn’t mean your story is over
Life is a book. It’s up to you how you are writing and how you fill in the pages of your book. It’s okay if you make mistakes while writing because there is always a way to throw away the draft and start a new page. The ups and downs make your story more interesting.
It’s the same with News. It’s always good to know what happens in the world because YOU are part of society and a representative of the world. Due to Journalism, I got to know about different things happening in the world that I wasn’t aware of. The current news quizzes we took had news coming from different parts of the world including local news. Stories we were telling were the things happening in the school and in our lives. The good news we were sharing before every class was helping us to feel closer to each other and feel like a family. The five minutes jobs, the Student of the Month stories were making us be more productive and responsible with deadlines. The People of ADM–this is what is special about our school. This is what I don’t have back home and it’s a skill I’m ready to use there.
One completed chapter it’s not the end of your story. Live it, feel it, write about it.

![Rhyan Miller is the April student of the month. Miller is the daughter of Charity and Rich Miller, and has maintained a 3.925 GPA. Her three favorite classes in high school have been drama as literature, Prostart II, and news journalism. Miller participates in cross country, theater, individual and large group speech, the prostart team, student council, NHS, silver cord, and track. She feels that her experiences in those activities have made her more extroverted, sharing that she is "not afraid of [her] own voice anymore." Miller plans to attend Winona State University to major in psychology and minor in political science. Her advice to others is to "Fake it 'till you make it." She feels she was selected as student of the month due to her increased active presence in the classroom. She is also thankful for the good parking spot. In honor of her achievements, Raccoon Valley Bank has donated $100 to the ADM Scholarship Foundation.](https://blackandredgister.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/20260427_104331-600x450.jpg)
