Sam Teare, junior, talks with Ryan Peters, junior, at philosophy club. I would say my favorite topic to talk about is the concept of free will and whether that applies to humans, Teare said. I like listening to all the ideas everyone has and thinking deeply about the topic.

Two dogs from the K-9 Unit, Roscoe and Oscar, came to Kirkwood High School to search for illegal drugs on Feb. 16. The random search conducted by the Kirkwood Police Department took place during homeroom and lasted 20 minutes. They checked lockers and backpacks and coats that were put in the hallway, Dr. Michael Havener, principal, said. They were able to move around different portions of the campus. Its a random selection of the campus. We dont do the same spot every time, but we do certain areas and they did a wonderful job covering the campus in a reasonable amount of time and in an appropriate way.

Julie Healey, KHS librarian, listens to classic rock, current pop R&B from the 60s and 70s and bluegrass music. Her favorite artists range from The Who to Prince to Willie Nelson. Healey believes most students listen to hip-hop at KHS. I think that schools have to be careful about language, about innapropriate language, Healy said. I know innapropriate sounds like such a fuddyduddy word, but schools have to take into account what happens when people are offended. I think when you are in any public entity, especially one thats paid for by tax money you do have to take into account not offending people. Christmas music is going to go in that same category. To me, it could be offensive to play Christmas music and I personally would not choose to.
