About the Contributors
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.
Amanda Ng, Managing Editor
Amanda Ng is a sophomore at THHS. She hopes to pursue law or finance in the future. She enjoys exploring hidden gems in Flushing and eating her way through the city. Her favorite Classic piece she worked on is the article about when NYC Public Schools Chancellor Melissa Aviles-Ramos toured THHS. Amanda learned a lot about the Queens College early college Bridge Program and why it was so important to the students of THHS. Her favorite Classic piece created by others is the special feature on the Festival of Nations 2025. She really loved this spotlight story and its format, as it truly showcased the work and talents of THHS students. Amanda appreciated how this piece blended writing, imagery, and video to bring this story of diversity to life.
