About the Contributors
Tabassum Ahmed, Photo Desk Manager
Tabassum is a sophomore at Townsend Harris. Photography enables her to capture moments and share her perspective with others. When she’s not running with the track team, she’s most likely catching up on sleep.
Maimuna Kader, Multimedia Staff Member
Maimuna Kader is a junior at Townsend Harris High School. She can be seen around the school snapping photos and videos with her phone or The Classic’s camera. She’s been in The Classic since the summer before her freshman year, which has allowed her to express herself through different types of media. Her favorite hobbies are filming, eating, baking, doom scrolling, and hanging out with friends.
Ryan Chen, Editor-in-Chief
Ryan is a junior at Townsend Harris High School, and he plans to pursue a career in business/finance. He enjoys taking photos but wants to improve at “making” photos. His favorite Classic project he worked on is the 2025 FON Saturday night live stream. He will forever remember the moment the song “Dynamite” started playing during the intro segment. After technical difficulties on Friday night, hearing that intro song and knowing that things were working came as a huge relief. His favorite Classic piece created by others is the video “High School Teachers Define Gen Z Slang.” He genuinely didn’t know half of the terms going into the video, and it helped him understand conversations during high school.
