‘Tis that time of year and as the 104th graduating class prepares to walk the stage and say farewell to Lincoln High School. The adminis-tration is rewarding the most out-standing students by deeming them Valedictorian and Salutatorian. The Valedictorian of the graduating class of 2013 is the esteemed Ashley Pi-wkiewicz, who has been hard at work ever since her entrance into Lincoln High School as a freshman. With a total of 16 Honors and AP classes

throughout her high school career, Piwkiewicz has pushed herself and deserves every bit of recognition and more for her efforts. As if graduating with a cumulative GPA of 4.72 isn’t enough, she gets the prestigious hon-or of being number one in her Senior class and Valedictorian. Ashley’s initial reaction was excitement. “It was nice to know that the hard work paid off”, exclaimed Piwkiewicz. Hard work is an under-statement for this thriving student.

Aside from all the effort in her school work, Ashley has a wide range of extracurricular activ-ities that puts her above others her age. Clubs on campus that Piwkiewicz was involved in include CSF (California Schol-arship Federation) for three years, taking the Vice President position her senior year and Physics Club for three years as well as being Manager/Fundraising Manager.

Trust us. It does rhyme...

Savannah Pieri Berkeley is, by all accounts, an exem-plary student. Her hardworking atti-tude and constant strive for knowl-edge has put her in an elite spot among her peers. She is the Salutatorian of the graduating class of 2013. Perhaps the most underrated quality in any suc-cessful person is humility. This virtue is defi-nitely not lost in Ms. Berke-ley. When asked how she felt about winning the prestigious title of Salutatorian, Berkeley jokingly replied, “I didn’t know it was a game.” Also adding, “It’s nice.” After considering this answer for a bit, she deemed it insufficient for giving the title its proper respect opting instead for the more apt, “It’s an honor,” displaying her gratefulness for having received it. Over the course of the interview, we asked Berkeley about her memories from attending Lincoln High. When asked if she had a favorite class or teacher, Berkeley thought for a bit before saying, “I really liked English this year (referring to Mrs. Bombard’s AP Literature class), but as far as teachers I don’t want to pick just one. I don’t want to leave anybody out.” Berkeley has many fond mem-ories of high school, but ultimately decided that her favorite was “climbing Half Dome at Yosemite National Park” with the Cross Country team that Berkeley is a part of (on top of her stellar aca-demics). As the title of this article suggests, Berkeley will be attending the esteemed college of UC Berkeley after graduating and is currently undecided on what she will major in. When asked if she had any advice for those aiming for the top of their class, Berkeley simply stated, “Don’t focus on the GPA, focus on the education.” Most seniors can attest to the value of this statement. Berkeley evident-ly takes her own advice as, when asked about her GPA she asked, “Am I supposed to know it?” Berkeley eventually estimated it to be “above a 4.0” giving at least some clue to its impressiveness.

Aside from clubs on campus, Ashley was also a peer tutor her senior year. Being an active member of not only the school campus, but also the community is a major factor in the awarding of Valedictorian and Piwkiewicz definitely fills that ex-pectation by volunteering at Ride to Walk, Placer SPCA (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals), Twelve Bridges Library and Lincoln Recreation as a boys youth soccer coach. With all the experience around her in the last four years, Ashley said that the best part of high school was “the friends and the teachers, the community base and getting to know everyone.” As she ventures off to the prestigious University of California Los Angeles (UCLA), Piwkiewicz is thrilled to start her next four years of education with pre-med. Her academic goals for high school were to “kind of expose [herself]” and “strive to understand a broad range of topics” in order to capture the full essence of being a motivated and determined high school students. This mentality has given Lincoln High School’s 2013 Valedictorian every bit of encouragement to get things done and be an excellent student in all she does. A piece of advice that Ashley has kept with her and continues to keep on her mind is “Never give up. If you keep on working hard, you will succeed.” This has proven to be true in every aspect for Ashley Piwkiewicz and as she exits high school with the high honor of Valedictorian, it is obvious that she will continue to excel in all she does.

Finally, the last thing Berkeley was asked in the interview, as it goes for every interview, is if there was anything she would like to add or see in the article. Berkeley responded very genuinely saying, “I want to thank the entire Lincoln High staff for everything. I wouldn’t have the chance to be Salutatorian if they didn’t do all they did for me.” On this heartwarming note the interview concluded with Berke-ley once again showing great humility and gratitude. We at Zebra Tales and Lincoln High as a whole wish Savannah the

best of luck in her future endeavors, and look forward to seeing her star rise in whatever career path she chooses to pursue.

Senior Scholarships On Thursday, May 9th, Lincoln High School held their annual Senior Awards Night where many seniors received magnif-icent scholarships for all their hard work. The three biggest scholarships totaled an amount of $330,000. Daniel Medina re-ceived an amazing amount of $300,000

from the Marine Corps, Ashley Piwkiewicz received the next biggest amount of $20,000

and Kenneth Marlow was honored with a $10,000 scholarship. Aside from these achievements, many other students received scholarships ranging from $500 to $5,000 and the room was left with a joyful silence. Two awards are given every year for Outstanding Senior Boy and Outstanding Senior Girl, which were awarded this year to Madie Brown and Abner Apsley who both received $1,000.

On behalf of the Zebra Tales staff and all of Lin-coln High School, we want to congratulate the honor-worthy students and wish them luck on their journey over the next years of their lives.

DISCLAIMER: THIS IS SATIRE! DO NOT TAKE ARTICLES SERIOUSLY, SERIOUSLY.

High school is four years of long and grueling work. The sharpies of students have scribed countless posters of economic policies and Consti-tutional amendments, thousands of hypothetical checks, and at least three essays about the corruption found in Macbeth. All of which were probably riddled with misspellings, grammatical errors, and the occasional complete disregard of source material, but nevertheless. That time is behind us, how-ever, as we will soon be considered legal adults, and thrown into the world, and realize that 3 months of employment at Jamba Juice doesn’t really mean anything while looking to the future. College is a popular choice among the senior populace of Lincoln High, but with tuitions at an all-time high, involving at least five zeroes and requests for first-born children, it can be rather impractical. Luckily, there are some seniors out there who are clever enough to find alternative uses of this money. For example, Valedictorian Ashley Peck-a-something cut out the middle man of “college” and just dumped $80,000 in cash into a pit she dug, and then set it ablaze, filling the skies with the fumes of her future. “The local fire marshal approached me soon after that,” says Picklewitch, “he offered me a job due to how impressive my controlled fire was.” None of us can be as clever as Ashley Pikachu, however. It’s just biologically impossible. Of course, for the common senior and the patriotic senior, the military is also a prevalent path for the senior class. Movies like Independence Day, The Patriot, and about 1/4th of Forrest Gump make it apparent that if going into the military means one thing, it’s that action will happen. Constantly. However, military recruiter Jerry Sand-ers sadly revealed to the Garlic staff that military life is more like the other ¾ of Forrest Gump, just with sad parts instead of the heartwarming parts. “The US military is actually in dire straits right now. I mean, we just have too many toothbrushes, and not enough people to use them!” confessed Sanders, reluctantly. “The floors are simply filthy, and our Humvees have been coated in mud for what feels like forever. If we got some plucky high school recruits who we could spiritually break and help us out, that’d be fantastic!” You heard him, Lincoln High. Help your country out. No matter where we end up, our future is now. It’s probably not auspi-cious in the slightest, but hey, it’s here. So come on class of 2013, let’s roll up our sleeves, grit our teeth, and white knuckle the heck out of our mini-mum wage fueled, student debt filled, and back breaking labor ridden lives that we will soon lead. Seniors rule!

AstroGarlic: Puns Are HardBy: Levi Thomas, Omniscient Being

For all you heroes out there that believe that the stars and plan-et’s alignment means something to you, here are this week’s horo-scopes divined from the Garlic’s own crystal ball... or lack thereof.

For years, Zebra Tales has brought the students of Lincoln High the best, and most breaking news about the school and surrounding area. However, a recent leak from within the organization has revealed that all the past news stories from Zebra Tales in the 2013 school year have been just that, stories. Reporter Zane Dean came clean saying, “Well the term ‘news story’ is technically accurate, I mean, they were presented as news, and they were stories. People just aren’t paying enough atten-tion to the newspaper; learn to read between the lines a little.” Dean further went on to explain that things haven’t always been this way saying, “Yeah, at the beginning of the year we started writing real articles, but by the time it came to publish the first newspaper there was just no news left.” This article is probably the last piece of real news to be published since the beginning of 2012. When questioned further on this topic, several Zebra Tales reporters, who wished to remain anonymous claimed, “This doesn’t just go to Zebra Tales, it’s bigger. Fox, CNN, MSNBC, Yahoo! News, BBC News, Onion News Network: all fake. Afghanistan? It’s fake, as in, the country of Afghanistan. You think there’s land there? It’s just a black-“ The interview ended as tear gas canis-ters shot through the windows and all informants were taken into the custody of the █████████ Commission.

I first came into Zebra Tales my junior year thinking that this would simply be a filler class; you have no idea how wrong I was. Despite my

being in the class for only one trimester last year this soon became one of my favorite classes and I made sure to sign up for it all year this time. If I must have a favorite time in this class it would have to be writing any political articles with my colleague and friend Josue. In all this has been

one of the best experiences of my high school career.

Kenny Marlow, News Editor

I’ve been in Journalism for a total of five trimesters, and I must say that it’s been my favorite class through all that time. There’s a certain freedom to being in the class that you just don’t really find in any other class. Since the start of my senior year I’ve been the Assistant or Co-Editor (take your pick), and it’s just made the class even bet-ter. It’s allowed me to be more creative and it’s allowed Zane and I to create the Zebra Tales Garlic, which has become a fan favorite among readers… or so I’ve been told. I would recommend this class to anybody who enjoys writing, drawing, or any other type of creative medium. It’s been extremely fun, and I will definitely miss it more

than almost everything else in high school… sans Drama.

Levi Thomas, Assistant Editor

My arm is sore from all the drawings… The horror… The unadulterated horror. I shudder just remembering those sleep-

less nights, pen in hand, paper in front of my red, burning eyes, waiting for death or a dried inkwell to deliver me salvation, but

neither ever came.

Josue Ayala, Art Department

I’ve only been in ZebraTales for my Senior year, and it has been pretty “radical” as the kids say. I mean, I get to have fun with friends while

having the freedom to write about things aside from the symbolic use of blades in MacBeth. The best part is definitely the Garlic, which Levi and I created. There’s nothing quite like writing only pure sarcasm and absurd-

ism and still being respected as a journalist.

Zane Dean, Garlic EditorStephanie Wilcox, Editor in Chief

Brooke Jacobsen, Design Editor

I’ve been in Journalism all four years of high school and could not have hoped for a better experience. A lot of change has occurred over the years, starting with no printed news-paper to having a full website and printing 5 issues a year. It’s so powerful to me, knowing

how much change I have been a part of. One of my best memories was the amazing and completely unexpected success of the First Annual Zebra Tales Halloween Carnival. The

support I received trying to put that event together from the community and school was as-tonishing and wonderful; probably one of the greatest achievements in my life. The friends

I’ve made in this class and the fun times we’ve had will stick with me as I venture on to big-ger things and I will always be so thankful for the opportunity to see this newspaper succeed

and be a part of its success.

Zebra Tales was fun. I’ll miss it.

Lincoln is very grateful to have the strong and witty Mr. Jones on campus. How-ever, after a good 29 years, Mr. Jones has made the final decision that he is retiring; “But like all good things, they must come to an end and my end is now. June 1st is actually my last work day at Lincoln High.” However, it won’t exactly be “the end.” Mr. Jones already has another job as the assistant manager of the Sunset Villa Mobile Home Park and according to the man himself, he loves it! Mr. Jones adds, “If you’re ever down my way, be sure to come by to have a cup of coffee and watch the tomatoes grow.” It seems as if Mr. Jones will be living that retirement life, alright. But he will surely miss everyone at LHS: “I want to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your friendship, leadership, and professionalism during my tenure at 49er ROP and Lincoln High School. I am very proud of the fact that Lincoln has always been my home.” “So as I reflect back over the past 29 years, it has been the most rewarding and amazing experience of my life because of each of you. May God Bless each and every one of you and keep safe! Thanks again everyone for helping to make this an unforgettable journey.” “Shalom.” Never goodbye. Shalom means peace be with you and your family. Goodbye means “the end” and this is not the end.

A Shining Achievement for a Future Marine A select group of highly esteemed seniors at Lincoln High School were awarded with scholarships for their amazing achievements throughout high school. One exceedingly lucky student stood out above the rest as he received a $300,000 scholarship from the United States Marine Corps. Dan-

iel Medina was contacted through Face-book by a recruiter who expressed his interest and, after some screening questions, he realized how

qualified Medina was for the

NROTC Marine Option scholarship. Through a series of events, Medina was chosen as the recipient of this scholarship and his whole life was flipped upside down for the better. According to the scholarship program layout, Medina will be able to go straight to college for four years with training and NROTC in summer months. Once he graduates from col-lege, he will go to an Officer Training School in Virginia and become a 2nd Lieutenant for the Marine Corps, going on active duty for four years

and three years reserve afterward. With this awesome achievement, Medina has decided to attend Univer-sity of California San Diego, which was originally his second choice. Though UCSD wasn’t number one on his list, it seems to be a perfect fit for him. Amazingly, the scholarship covers everything excluding housing, which FAFSA will most likely cover. “It took a lot of stress off of me. I’m really thankful” Medina expressed with relief. His dedication to school work, ac-tive servitude in the community as a referee for Lincoln Recreation and a peer tutor at Lincoln High has really paid off. With this opportunity and reward, Daniel has his plans all in or-der and is ready to take on the college and Marine experience. His overall response to receiving such an honor was, “I really think it was a blessing.”

Wilcox’s Plan to Thrive

Stephanie Wilcox, the organized and determined editor of the school newspaper, has veered away from the “normality” of going straight to college after graduation. Instead, she’s de-cided to take more of a religious route. Wilcox was granted an internship through Bayside Church, known as Thrive Lead-ership School; she added, “It was a random opportunity and I jumped at it. It’s not what I want to do in the long run, but it’s a good transition (money-wise as well).” Stephanie will be attending the 9 month leadership pro-gram, as well as taking online classes through Azusa Pacific University for her full freshman year. In the program, she will be focusing on leadership skills as well as working 20-hours a week as an intern through student ministries at Bayside Church. She will be living with a host family from the church to get a feel of independence while staying away from home which was one of the most important changes she wanted in her next step of life. With this opportunity, Wilcox’s goal is to “really be able to fully grasp the entirety of my leadership qualities, my learning ability and my newly found independence as I ven-ture into the so called “real world”. This program was the best chance at getting the education, smooth tran-sition, out-of-home experience that I’ve been looking for before I head off to a 4-year.” When her first year comes to an end, Stephanie hopes to transfer to Azusa Pacific University to continue the rest of her education in English, with the hope of becoming an En-glish teacher or Book Editor later in her life.

Most Changed...

How do you feel when you look at your Freshman photo? I die a little bit on the inside.

Why do you think you changed so much over the years? Puberty.

Do you like that you changed? Yes. I have a nice butt now.

Sean Gage

Sophia Morel

How do you feel when you look at your Freshman Photo? I feel sad, I wanna cry. You really discover who you are in

High School. In Junior and sophomore year, I was a hipster; now, I’m Sophia.

Why do you think you changed so much over the years? I dunno, I developed my personality; different people influ-

enced me throughout the years.

Least Changed...

How do you feel when you look at your Freshman Photo?

I dunno, um… I feel a lot younger. It feels weird hold-ing a picture of myself.

Why do you think you changed so little over the years? I didn’t change myself much. I kept everything the

same. Or at least I tried to as much as I could. Do you think you changed in any way?

I think I changed for the better. I matured, I lift more. I’m more responsible with my job and time manage-

ment. I grew up for the better.

How do you feel when you look at your Freshman Photo?

It looks like my face! Why do you think you changed so little over the years? I changed a lot in Middle School. I didn’t change much

after that. Do you think you changed in any way?

My personality definitely changed. I’m more responsi-ble, reliable. Physically, I look pretty much the same.
