Mary Grado is finally a senior at LHS, although most adults assume that she is 15 (she’s actually 18). This is her first year on the newspaper staff and she is super excited to be a part of such a fantastic program! Some like to call her lazy, but she really just enjoys relaxing, sleeping, and not having to exert a lot of physical movement. The simple things in life make her happy, such as smoothies, her neighborhood park, big t-shirts, good music, Mediterranean food, pink clouds, nice people, and MOST importantly, her dog Ginger. She really likes the name Rosalita and tries to embrace her Mexican roots as much as she can. She is a music enthusiast, and although some would think that she grew up in the hood due to the rap she listens to, she also really loves alternative, indie, and everything else but country (don’t play it anywhere near her). And finally, yes, she has small feet, she’s fully aware. :)
