Mikai Tasch, Social Media Editor-in-Chief

My name is Mikai Tasch, and I am a senior. I am the Social Media Editor-in-Chief for the Pony Express Newspaper. Clubs I participate in are Yearbook, Link Crew, and I also take art classes. I have previously taken drum lessons and been on the SAHS Student Council. I love practicing my drums and keyboard, baking, drawing, painting, biking, watching shows and movies on Netflix and Disney+, catching up on the news, walking my dog, and so much more. This year, I am most looking forward to helping students produce great newspaper stories.

This photo shows band teacher Dennis Lindsay along with his one in-person student for Percussion Ensemble on the b day. A room that would usually be filled with around 30 students playing a variety of instruments, from Marimbas to Tom Toms, instead only shows one student and Lindsay doing their “independent studies” while the stands and chairs (not pictured) sit with no one using them during this period. Many of the students in Percussion Ensemble are doing full on distance learning, and in early November with the start of quarter two, this room will be left fully empty.
