Brooke Mathews, Staff Writer

Hi, my name is Brooke. This is my first year on the Digest and my last year at Central. I joined Journalism to practice my technical writing skills. Marching Band takes up most of my time; I play the saxophone and I am on the leadership team. I am a member of Beta Club, National Honors Society, Book Club, and have been an honors student all four years of my high school career.
