A Conversation About Whiplash By Olivia Fung
Whiplash is very possibly one of the best movies I’ve seen in my limited time on this earth. I can’t tell if you're going to love it, but if you’re anything like me, you’ll be in awe. It’s not something you enjoy, it’s something you appreciate. It’s art.
How to Avoid Oversleeping BY Hazel Duross
Here are the top research-based tips that could help you wake up early and avoid being late for school and/or work.
Unearthing Something Louder BY EMMA MALARDO
Oddly enough, this experience sparked my great interest in writing. I needed an outlet to express the courage I couldn’t speak, and writing did the trick for me. I put my deepest passions and resentments into fine print in hopes that they could one day change the ways of the world, and inspire those like me to speak their minds the way our minds speak to us

WCVY: Coventry High School’s Hidden Gem By Josephina Johnson
Radio has gone out of style, replaced by Spotify and social media. Yet radio offers much that these lack, including a sense of history and culture missing from your phone. Like a record player, listening to music on the radio offers you a different type of sound, with a nostalgic buzz often hovering in the background. But unlike vinyl records, radio is free.
Reading My Way through the CHS Library’s “Thrills, Chills, and Alien Abductions” List BY ISABELLA CARLOW
I was super lucky to happen to come across this book, and I really hope the next one I review will be just as good, if not better! Next month, my book review will be on Hell Followed With Us by Andrew Joseph White, be sure to check out that one as well!
Mirror, Mirror BY OLIVIA POULOS
My childhood self would never recognize the confident young woman I now observe in the mirror. For a long while I internally existed within a place of great discomfort; I simply did not like myself. Around second grade I began to see my body change in unfamiliar and daunting ways. Waking up before school, I’d notice patches of acne sprinkling my face, seemingly multiplying each day. Suddenly, I was setting my alarms thirty minutes earlier, reperforming makeup tutorials with a trembling hand as I concealed my flustered shame; ‘I just want to look pretty’.

With my senior year underway, perhaps the biggest obstacle my fellow seniors and I face is the college application process, a process full of complications, career considerations, creativity, and lack of certainty. With this, I would like to share my experience, what has gone well and what hasn’t, and shed light on what I believe to be the best tips and tricks to the college application process as a whole.
Giving Thanks By Christiana Votta
People don't always fully realize what they have till it's gone. It sounds cliche but it is true. We take for granted what we have, the people around us that we love, and our education.

CHS Community Celebrates Free Speech BY SAMUEL HIERS
Be prepared for some exciting and inspiring events going forward in the week of February 6th! During morning announcements for all of this week and throughout the halls of your school, you will hear and see quotes by various authors and figures throughout history that draw attention to freedoms of speech and the power of the press. Courtesy of your lovely Entry staff, these quotes have been well-chosen to promote our club’s goals and spread awareness of the articles and content we bring to you regularly. More importantly, we hope that these quotes will inspire you to communicate ideas and information more openly without the fear of being prosecuted for what you believe.
