Hi, I’m Abbie Blount and a senior here at BJHS! This year I’m president of the National Art Honors Society and play clarinet in our Wind Ensemble. I love to make art and am hoping to go to the Savannah College of Art and Design next year for animation and game design. Besides art, I also love sci-fi, comics, crocheting, music, and history!

Hey! I’m Rena Kerndl. I’m currently a senior. I’m super into any kind of art—you name it, I’ve at least tried it. I’m in the band and write my own music, I write poetry and stories, and I love art and video editing. I’m super into rhythm games at the moment, and I hope that one day I’ll make my own video game. I plan on going to college for graphic design and finding a career inside that field.
