Lets Not Forget about Hanukkah!
Sanam Khanlou'21
Opinions Editor
As a Muslim at Louisville, I get to learn the traditions and stories about the Catholic faith. I have been surrounded by Christmas and many other Catholic holidays and traditions for the past seven years. Going to a Catholic middle school and high school has brought me more awareness about the faith and generated questions about the Jewish religion.
I was fortunate enough to be included during one of the nights of Hanukkah last year with my friends (Danielle Goren ’21 and alumna Sydney Goren ’20) and learned about the lighting of the menorah. Since then, I have become curious about the Jewish religion and wanted to shine a light on our diverse community. Being in a Catholic school, I didn’t expect to hear much about the Jewish religion, but I grew more curious, so I decided to ask my fellow classmates and Louisville sisters who celebrate Hanukkah what their family traditions are and how does it feel to be going to a Catholic school as a Jewish person.
Alex Cohen ’21
During Hanukkah, Alex and her family celebrate by throwing a party for both sides of her family. During the night they eat good food such as latkes (a yummy potato pancake), play dreidel, and the adults partake in a white elephant.
“Hanukkah is not our most important holiday, and it's often over hyped because it is seen as ‘Jewish Christmas,’ and even though it's important, there are other more significant holidays in our faith,” said Alex Cohen ’21
I asked how being in a Catholic school affects her and she said it helps her become more appreciative of her faith. Additionally, it has helped her understand Catholicism,and even more, helped her learn the value of the connection between herself and God.
Carly Ralph ’21
During Carly’s Hanukkah, her brother and her help around the kitchen especially when making the latkes. After their dinner and the lighting of the menorah they receive their gifts and continue celebrating throughout the night.
“I feel happy to be Jewish and go to a Catholic school. I have a deep enough connection with my own faith to feel confident and be able to answer questions about my faith,”commented Carly Ralph ’21.
Holland Jablonski ’22
During the first night of Hanukkah, Holland and her family make all the festive foods. They make latkes and hallah while talking about the true story of Hanukkah and its origin. She also says that Hanukkah is one of the less important holidays. While in the beginning of freshman year, she felt a little uncomfortable with learning about the Catholic faith but now sees the difference between the two religions and says, “I like learning about Catholicism because of it being different.”
Meagan Riding ’23
On the first night of Hanukkah, before dinner, Meagan and her brother light the menorah and say prayers together. For dinner, her family gets together, and her grandmother makes a delicious brisket!
On going to a Catholic school Meagan says, “being Jewish at a Catholic school doesn't affect me because everyone is very accepting and inclusive!”
Getting the opportunity to interview my fellow classmates and Louisville sisters about Hanukkah has given me more knowledge of the Jewish faith and also has given me the opportunity to shine light on our diverse community. Happy Holidays!

College Demographics 2020-2021

The time has come for seniors to apply to colleges! During this crazy time, I wanted to highlight our seniors and see where they are going next Fall! I surveyed the senior class and out of 85 seniors, 25 responded with some information on their college application process. Let’s see how the class will spend their 2021-2022 year!
Nina Hall ‘21 revealed her process was “stressful, but it’s not as bad as [she] thought it would’ve been, just time-consuming.”
The number of colleges that the class of 2021 are applying to range from 2 to 30! More than half of the seniors are applying for early action with a November 1st deadline. Great work getting those apps in, ladies; what a relief! To the 28 percent of seniors who did not apply early action, good luck with those applications. You got this!
Along with early action, 32 percent of the seniors who responded applied for early decision, a binding agreement that you are required to go to a certain school if offered admission. I, personally, did not have any colleges that fit those criteria, as well as the rest of the 68 percent of the seniors.
Let’s get into where our seniors will be. Looking at the survey results, I see that we might have our class split all over the country! 19 of the 25 students are applying to schools in California and the other six are not applying to any California schools. With similar statistics to the previous question, 72 percent of seniors are applying to out of state schools, with 28 percent applying for strictly California admission. Studying abroad is a program where students attend college in a different country. This program can often be an entire semester or a full academic year. 72 percent of students plan on doing this during their college years.
Abby Deroian ‘21 plans on “doing two years in California, then transferring to Boston University.”
When asked to comment on the college process as a whole, Mckenna Dixon ‘21 had a very insightful description of her experience: “Something that surprised me during the college process was the amount of supplemental essays almost every school requires, as well as having to complete portfolios and prescreens in order to be considered for any arts programs. Frankly, it has been a bit hectic, but some Louisville grads I still keep in contact with have offered me amazing advice and support”.
Another senior, Emma Walker, exclaimed that she is “very relieved that five out of the eight applications are done!”
Overall, I was very impressed and intrigued by the diverse college options shared with me by my fellow classmates. I am excited for updates and acceptances that will come in the next couple of months. Great job, seniors!
Royals dye their hair over quarantine

Over the past few months, popular trends have come and gone. Whether you spent way too much time learning elaborate TikTok dances, making heavily caffeinated dalonga coffee drinks, or even attempted multiple workout programs, you have definitely participated in a quarantine trend.
One of the most noticeable of these compelling fads revolved around dying your hair. Your appearance, including hair color, is the first thing you identify with. It can also be one of the most detectable changes in one’s physical traits. From modest and natural highlights to dying it the brightest of colors, your hair can change your personality.
As we are no longer on campus and have more personal freedoms, many of our Louisville sisters have participated in this exciting craze. Within the student body, 25 percent of the students who dyed their hair had either highlights, lowlights, or some form of a natural color. However, in terms of bright colors, pink and purple were by far the most popular. About 40 percent of those who dyed their hair chose pink (20 percent) or purple (20 percent). The remainder included black (9 percent), blue (11 percent), red (11 percent), green (2 percent) and even rainbow (2 percent).
Additionally, 52 percent of our Louisville peers used either Splat or Arctic Fox for their blazing colors. These products were also proven to be most successful regarding vibrance, durability, and permanence.

Freshman Emily Brown decided to switch her hair many times over quarantine. Emily described,
“First I had all red, then I bleached half of my head to make half black and half blue. After the bleach did not turn out well, I then bleached it again and dyed half of it pink and kept the other half black.”
Her confidence to not only dye her hair once, but many times shows her adventurous and fiery personality.
Dakota Fisher, another new addition to Louisville as a member of the freshman class, explained,
“I’ve been dying since before quarantine, but I did neon red, purple, and blue over quarantine. I used Arctic Fox for blue, Iroiro for red and Pravana Chromasilk for purple.”
Following in her Louisville sister’s footsteps, Dakota was bold and daring with her color choices, allowing her to express herself freely.

Senior Annie Bolger also participated in the trend and proceeded to dye and cut her hair.
She reported, “I dyed my hair purple and then I dyed it pink. I also cut bangs. I used three different purples, but the only one that was vibrant and stayed was Splat.”
Annie also mentioned that Splat is very hard to wash out. If you are looking for a product that lasts, Splat is a great option. However, if you are only in the mood to switch it up for a few weeks, Annie, among others, recommends something else.
Everyone’s hair has its own flair. Whether it is the shade, length, texture, etc. no hair is precisely the same. Every product and color will react differently on different hair. Therefore, if you are looking to dye your hair anytime soon, these recommendations might not work exactly how you want them to, but it is certainly fun to try! Choose a color or style that matches how you feel about yourself and become your most confident self.
Although we do not know exactly when we are going back, remember that when we do, you must have a natural hair color. Make sure to give yourself plenty of time to get back into the swing of the dress code!
Meet the Class of 2024!
Alex Gerwe '21
News Editor
Louisville’s current virtual format has been a new and different experience for all of us. Going to class from my bedroom is something I never would have imagined doing! Learning online has affected the whole school, especially the newest members of Louisville, the class of 2024.
After asking 47 freshmen some questions, only 50 percent rated their first months of Louisville a four out of five, and I believe the Louisville community as a whole can help improve this statistic. To me, one of the greatest joys of attending Louisville are the bonds I form with my classmates. So, to help bond us Louisville sisters, I first asked what a select few what experiences at Louisville they are most looking forward to, along with some fun questions to get to know these ladies!
“I am excited to start fresh and make new friends. I know that the sisterhood that Louisville has will always make me feel welcome. I can’t wait to start school in person and get to know girls in different grades” Danica Rach ’24.
“I think for me I am looking forward to making new friends. Louisville always has the sweetest people and I am really excited to meet all those people and be a part of the sisterhood" Grace Henderson ’24.
Some fun facts about the class of 2024 that I learned is their favorite cereals consisted of Lucky Charms, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Cheerios, Cocoa Puffs and more! Each girl had her favorite class, but Biology was a common favorite at 25 percent. In their free time, some of the royals’ favorite shows to watch included Gossip Girl, The Vampire Diaries, Outer Banks and Grey's Anatomy. In addition, more than half of these ladies are also involved at Louisville in one way or another. So, to help unite the sisterhood I encourage you to make new connections with these pieces of information.
Senior Thoughts On COVID

This year has been a difficult year for everyone due to COVID, and everything has altered. It has been especially difficult for this year's senior class, because the special events they would usually have, were cancelled or moved. I wanted to check in on my senior sisters so I sent out a survey asking them a handful of questions. The first question asked was how they were doing. I was hoping for a better outcome because 75 percent said they could be better and the other 25 percent said they were good. I am not surprised that it was such a high outcome but it would be better if we had school.
After talking to some of the girls, they said quarantine indeed did have some positive outcomes.
Mady Barnett ‘21 “Seeing my senior year being taken away, I of course was so sad but distance learning has given me the opportunity to have more time to focus on my faith and developing deeper meaningful relationships with my friends!”
Sara Ghadban ‘21 “Distance learning has definitely been hard but it has helped me appreciate spending the time I have left with my family before I leave for college. It forced me to see the positives of every day and keep in contact with friends.”
The seniors have been up to various activities. Most said college preparation, such as ACT/SAT or applications. They have been doing a lot of school work as well which is their main focus. Some uplifting activities they have been doing is working out, seeing a few friends, and catching up on tv shows or watching movies. The majority of girls say they missed most about campus was Campus Ministry, the cafeteria/vending machines, interactions with teachers, and of course, their friends. Being able to work harder and become a stronger student has also been very positive.
Alex Gerwe ‘21 “I struggle with chronic illness and have my whole life. Because of that, I miss tons of school. Doing school from home allowed me to keep up with my classes which has made school so much more enjoyable. With staying home and everyone wearing masks, my health has really improved.”
Sanam Khanlou ‘21 “For me, learning distance has helped me become a more positive and hardworking student. Even though it’s hard being away from my classmates and not being in a learning environment I truly believe distance learning is making me more of a productive student.”
The upcoming online event they are mainly looking forward to is Spirit Week. Spirit Week is my favorite part of the year because we can dress up in fun clothes. Another event the seniors are looking forward to is the Mother/Daughter boutique and lunch.
Overall, everyone misses being at school and wishes they had their normal life back. Let's hope that school and life goes back to normal soon. Thank you to everyone who completed the survey.
Royals at work

On 5 March, the Louisville students, faculty, and staff gathered in St. Louis Hall to learn more about the diverse world of careers. Representatives from all kinds of jobs were present and ready to advocate for their profession. Most of these representatives were Louisville alumni, forming an immediate bond with the students and guests right off the bat. Louisville girls were able to ask questions and be informed about necessary requirements for jobs ranging from nurses and surgeons to Federal agents and everything in between.
Career fairs like these are important for a variety of reasons. They allow students to explore their identity and learn more about different professions in our world. This, in turn, gives students a better chance of entering college in a field they are passionate about and leave high school feeling confident about starting the next chapter of their lives. Louisville’s drive to offer an array of careers gives everyone the ability to find a professional to converse with and leave the fair filled with important and influential information. These fairs can lead students down paths that they never even imagined exploring.
“I think it’s always important to keep an open mind to new ideas or in this case, new careers, so a fair like this really helps me to expand my horizon and stay curious,” says Hailey Bullard ’21.
Additionally, career fairs give students the opportunity to make connections that can benefit them presently or perhaps in the future. Making these kinds of connections are vital for students once they join the professional world themselves; they can be used for recommendations, finding job opportunities or interviews, and even just having the chance to talk about a career field with a professional.
The 2020 Louisville High School Career Fair was an event easily characterized by excitement, ambition, and the beginning of many success stories. It helped many Royals learn more about themselves and what they are passionate about, while also opening the eyes of others to new jobs and the opportunities that come with them. Hopefully, everyone had a wonderful time and left with a better idea of who they are and where they aspire to go in life!
Aloha, and Welcome to Freshman Flip!

Aloha! Feburary 28 was Freshman Flip hosted by the Louisville class of 2024. This year’s theme was luau. The night was filled with exciting games, prizes, an entertaining photo booth, and even a raffle for Disneyland tickets! The freshmen student council did an amazing job with the decorations: there were blow-up palm trees, creative tablecloths, Hawaiian flowers, and vibrant streamers. Many even dressed up in Hawaiian shirts and leis to match the theme of the event.
“We went with a summery theme because we thought that everyone would just be able to enjoy a super warm, bubbly theme to get excited for the summer” said freshman class president, Sasha Petrovicheva.
The tables had some delicious food: there was pizza, Stone Fire, boba, and many dessert options including Dunkin Donuts, cheesecake, cookies and brownies.
“I got a really good, fun table. The food was good and the decorations were really pretty” said Valerie McFadden.
It was the Royals turn to host an event with our Crespi brothers. Everyone had a blast and the girls did a great job. Most of them knew each other so it was less awkward than froshbox making the event all the more fun.
“It was really fun and I'm glad I got to hang out with my friend and it was also cool because now we know everyone better” said one of our Crespi brothers, Luka Bladow.
Funny jokes were made, photobooth pictures were taken, and friendships were developed. There were plenty of games including a hula hoop competition, relay races, and musical chairs. The winners of our hula hoop competition included Ava Pesce, Katie Cogbil, and Juliana Buccieri who recieved Starbucks gift cards, and a Crespi Celt won a trip to Disneyland in the raffle.
Mahalo to all of the freshmen for their bright and imaginative ideas because, without them, the night just wouldn’t have be the same.
Everyone enjoying a fun and delicious dinner.

Fun at FUNUM: Winter Pep Rally

At our second pep rally of the year, the dragons, sharks, panthers, and turtles were hyped and ready to go. Everyone wondered if the seniors would win again, or if the freshman, sophomores, and juniors would be redeemed. We were so eager to kick off the new year with a fun day full of games and a delicious lunch especially made by the Dad’s Club BBQ.
We started the pep rally with an exciting, and competitive, version of Hungry Hungry Hippos where we had to work as teams to collect as many balls as possible and which ever grade had the most balls would win. After a very competitive game, the freshman finished in fourth place, the sophomores in third, the juniors in second, and finally, the seniors took first place! We took a short break to get some delicious burgers and hot dogs from the Dad’s BBQ. Afterwards, it was game on with an epic basketball game featuring our faculty vs. varsity basketball team. We had our royals play against our very own Miss Canfield, Mr. Clark, Mr. Ayala, Mr. Wilson, Mrs. Barel, Mr. Petok, Mr. Van Briggle, Coach Monica, and team fan Erika.
“It was a hard fought game and the faculty and basketball team showed their true athletic capabilities” said one of our spirited sports announcers, Kaydee Inouye ’20.
“It was a really fun game and I was just happy to play against the faculty one last time” said one of our fierce varsity players, Fatima Perez ’20.
The game was neck and neck the entire thirty minutes, we were all at the edge of our seats but in the end, the royals won 27-25. What a groovy way to start the year.

Making Memories with Mom
By Madison Bretado '21
On October 4 2019, we enjoyed the beloved tradition of the Mother-Daughter Boutique and Picnic. This event is an annual and important part of the Louisville High School experience. Mothers came early to the campus to set up their perfect picnic spots with the mouth-watering food they brought. The food varied from salads, In-n Out, Thai food, sandwiches, Panera Bread, pasta, and to top it all off, the bake sale sold homemade desserts. The tasty treats ranged from fleur de lis cookies, a vanilla lemon cake, oatmeal raisin cookies, chocolate chip cookies, pumpkin muffins and so much more. They all looked delicious!
After the students found their moms and shared a meal together, they headed into St. Louis Hall to go on a little shopping spree. Clothes, purses, candles, jewelry, and even olive oil were sold. We even had some Louisville moms as vendors for the Boutique. Another one of the vendors was the art department. They sold antique pins to decorate our lapels.
Like every year, pins for the year’s theme “Come Together” were sold by awesome moms who volunteered to help out. The event was also set up by the parent guild who volunteer their time to help the event shine.
Georgia Kreischer ‘22 said, “It was really fun and I think it was a great way for moms to spend time with their daughters at school.”
Girls whose moms were not in attendance were able to spend time with other girls’ mom, so no one was left out.
The Mother-Daughter Boutique has been a part of Louisville since 1987 and is a favorite event that moms enjoy. It is also a great opportunity for alumnae parents to come back and visit our beautiful campus. It gives them a chance to relive the boutique as moms.
“As an alumna, the boutique has evolved to include the mothers and makes them a part of student life and embraces the mother-daughter bond. It gives the opportunity to let the mothers meet their daughter’s friends and parents,” said Kelly Browne ‘84, mother of Ava Browne ‘22.
Overall it was a wonderful day, spent having fun shopping and eating with our beautiful moms.

A spooktacular Trunk-or-Treat
By Christabelle Malek '20
This tradition involves everyone decorating the trunk of their cars, painting pumpkins, and having fun on bounce houses. The event is just filled with creativity!
First came the decorating, the cars were decked out with some exciting themes such as Stranger Things, Scooby Doo, and Winnie the Pooh. Next, was pumpkin decorating, the kids got to take a break and paint a little pumpkin. There were so many costumes, all of the kids looked great! There were princesses, firemen, vsco girls, and even a baby shark! Lastly, were the bounce houses! After decorating their pumpkins, the kids got to jump around and slide while listening to some entertaining Halloween music.
“I loved seeing all the kids in their different costumes and seeing the smiles on their faces when looking at all the decorated cars,” said Alanna Celaya ’20.
“Grace Barberie and I chose the Day of the Dead theme in honor of our love for the Disney movie, Coco and thought it was a fun way to incorporate our favorite movie and Halloween spirit,” said Daniella Ruiz ’21.
Parents, teachers, students, and all of the little kids had such a fun time with their costumes, pumpkins, bounce houses, and best of all, candy. What a great way to start this year’s Halloween!
Big Sis Little Sis Luncheon
by Madison Bretado' 21
This year at our Big Sister Little Sister Luncheon, the Junior class of 2021 welcomed the new freshmen into the Louisville Sisterhood. Junior class President, Daniella Ruiz started the event with a welcoming speech after Spirit Chair, Rory Brennan led prayer. Vice President, Annie Bolger then gave a speech about the importance, meaning, and bond of the Louisville Sisterhood.
She said, “Our sisterhood is our tribe and each of us is gifted with something unique, our own arsenal of knowledge, and skills to assist us in our mission.”
This was the freshmen’s first experience of sisterhood and a crucial part of a student's time at Louisville. The purpose of the luncheon is to give the Freshmen a mentor, a friendly face in the hallways, and a forever sister.
In true Pink Panther theme, the Hall was decorated with pink roses and gold Eiffel towers. Each table seated 8 girls and they were nervous to find out who their sister is. The student council provided a list of questions in order to get to know their sister better. Such as, “What is your favorite movie/tv show?” and “What sports do you play?” The cafeteria supplied pasta, veggies, and salad while the Louisville moms supplied a delicious dessert table ranging from cookies, cupcakes and bundt cakes.
At the end of the Luncheon, the new freshmen got to experience the fairly new tradition of the Juniors pining the angel pin on the freshmen’s blazers, officially making them a Louisville Sister. The luncheon has been this way for six years and has changed often but today it is better than ever. We hope this tradition will continue to live on and continue to unite the future freshman and junior classes!
The Juniors prepared a beautiful dessert table themed in their Pink Panther pink for their little sisters to enjoy.

It is that time of year where everyone comes together to have fun at our Louisville Dance! This year’s theme was Neon. Our theme brought us all together and showcased some AMAZING looks. Everyone was all dressed up with their friends and ready to dance People dressed from head to toe with a variety of neon colors! Even teachers dressed up! From neon scrunchies to neon shoe laces, people were practically glowing There were so many creative outfits, some people were even matching! There were tacos, friends, and dancing.
“I really enjoyed my last welcome dance with my friends. It was a great night full of dancing, laughing, and of course yummy tacos. The theme for the dance was also amazing!” said Alanna Celaya‘20.
There are even students from other schools, so everyone came together to have an incredible time. Music featuring artists Cardi B such as was blasting and everyone was having an amazing time. All of the song s were PERFECT to dance to. While some were in the hall dancing, others were having fun on our very own senior lawn.
“It was so fun I had such a great time! The music was really good and I liked how we could be either inside or outside” said Sophia Derrig-Palumbo’23 on her first Welcome Dance.
There were a ton of activities to do! People were having ping pong matches to see who was the best. The taco trunk provided some yummy tacos to give us energy for more dancing. People were with all of there friends, catching up, or meeting new people, whether it be from Louisville or other schools. The night was big and bright, and fun; having fun with all of your friends is a great way to start the new school year!
