The PTSA-sponsored AHS Pantry hosted a food pantry

The PTSA-sponsored AHS Pantry hosted a food pantry distribution on Oct. 23 from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. Families were welcome to stop by and get food as well as access a variety of necessities including cleaning supplies, hygiene items and paper towels. “We want to help families and students dealing with food insecurity issues because, no matter who you are, at some point everyone needs help,” PTSA President Norma Foti said. “[The pantry distribution] helps lowers the stigma around food insecurity and asking for help because we are really just here to help you.” The AHS Pantry regularly hosts distributions on the second and fourth Fridays of each month. Donations can be made to the Pantry by contacting Norma Foti at pantry@annandalehsptsa.org (📸: Maram Ibrahim)

Senior Kelly Tieu is an IB Diploma candidate and has been very involved in her community as Co-Student Chair of the Equity Team’s Antiracism Education Committee, a member of the Asian American LEAD and many other things. “Amidst the rise of anti-Asian racism in America, I wanted to empower other Asian-Americans through understanding the significance of their identity,” Tieu said. She mainly focuses on her nonprofit organization that provides STEM education opportunities for underrepresented people of color. “This is crucial seeing that COVID-19 disproportionately affects minorities,” Tieu said. A full spotlight can be found on page 5 of Issue 1, available on the website. (📸: Thonny Anwar)

The Annandale Equity Team is currently in search of students seeking to make a better school environment through an equitable and anti-racist lens. Currently, it is made up of eight different committees to address different inequities at school. Those interested can attend the October meeting tomorrow, Oct. 21, at 3:30 p.m. via the link: http://bit.ly/equitymeeting. “I started the Annandale Equity Team because I wanted to work with passionate students, faculty, and administration to create real change in our school,” senior and co-founder Jimmy Le said. “When you walk into our school, one of the first words that you see is ‘Value All. Compromise None.’ My dream is to make these words a living reality.” (📸: Ryan Lam)

The Just World club participated in its annual Chalk for Peace event on Oct. 19. The event promotes world peace by having students inscribe messages of peace in drawings and other languages with chalk along the sidewalk of the front of the school. “I think it’s important to remind the students, even if they’re here or not, that we should be actively trying to achieve a more peaceful world and raise awareness about it,” senior and Just World President Emma Tlusty said. The club made sure to follow social distancing guidelines, requiring everyone to wear masks in order to participate. (📸: Vivian Phan and Thonny Anwar)

Class of 2018 alumni Adrien Henao made his interest of shoes a reality through an event called Sneaker Exchange where over 600 people came to buy and sell sneakers. “This was fun and I can’t wait for the next one” senior Ayaz Ahmed said. In just the span of two years, Henao has sold hundreds of shoes, becoming one of the most well known resellers in the area. “Because of what’s happening right now, other sneaker events aren’t necessarily live,” Henao said. By promoting his event very successfully, he has gathered people from “all over the East Coast... and even Los Angeles” to attend. Henao has officially organized two events and hopes to plan many more. (📸: Leon Arceo)
