Welcome to the official Montebello High School newspaper

"Hope"
You are a world away from mine,
With searing memories of love
That turn my heart to ashes
You have only given me hope
Of a better life after this madness
Of a future that holds out its hand
To me
A reflection of what could be but
Never is
For you are a daydream,
A beautiful distraction to feed
My imagination
To free me from chains that bind me
To loneliness

"Walking Through High School"
This is it everything that you have gone through us now memories.
All of your happy and sad times in high school have now faded.
A new life has begun on your own.
No more waking up dreading that this day will never get here.
Now the day is here and your missing everyone before they even
walk through these high school doors.
Every memory is left unsaid.
On graduation day everyone cried, I even cried.
Knowing that I may never get to hang with my friends ever again.
Hoping they’ll be here for my graduation crying with me.
