Sophomore Year Recap By Ms. Photoframe A school year can change you so much as a person. New friends and new experiences. Just like all the other years of your life, it feels really good to watch it all melt and see where your hard work has paid off.

The Hungry Dreamer By Ms. Photoframe Part 3 Discovering the dream: We see others do something that we want to do. Sometimes, that is how we find our passion.
