Sophia Long, News Editor

Hello! My name is Sophia Long and I’m a senior at FHS. This is my first year with The Falconer, and I’m really enjoying it! I’ve played the piano for ten years and love it. I also like to draw and be outdoors. I’m not sure what I want to do in college, so I thought I would take journalism to try out something new. I am looking forward to being a part of the journalism team!
