Senior Spotlight: Alicia Lambert

By Lauren Bartholemy, Shark Correspondent


After 13 years at Cedar Key School, Alicia Lambert will walk out the gym doors on June 1st with a full resume. She leaves behind a legacy of hard work and determination. Alicia traveled this long journey with a wonderful sense of humor and a smile on her face.

Alicia will be graduating top of her class as the 2013 Valedictorian. During her years at Cedar Key, Alicia has been a part of SGA, Sr. Beta, FFEA, FFA, Marine Science, and FBLA. She has played basketball, volleyball, and softball. Alicia has filled the years with many accomplishments. She advises students to "Be your own person, stay focused, don`t procrastinate, and be confident in your own abilities."

Alicia`s most fond moments of Cedar Key are the theme parties for Spanish in Coach Brad Penny`s room. Her favorite thing about CKS is the one- on- one time with teachers, "they care about how well you do." Her favorite teachers include Coach Brad and Mrs. Lauren.

Alicia will attend UNF in Jacksonville this fall. She plans to become a nurse, and then began a profession as a Physician Assistant.

Cedar Key School is so proud of you and your accomplishments. Good luck, Alicia!

Anatomy Stir-fry

Rebecca Russo, Shark Correspondent

The Cedar Key School Anatomy class had a stir-fry to celebrate finishing their project on the human body digestive system. The stir-fry took place outside in Mr. Powers`s lab during 3rd period. Mr. Powers made the dish for the students in order to display how fast the body can digest food to help the students understand what they were researching and learning about.


Mr. Powers demonstrates how to use a wok during his Anatomy and Physiology class.

Cheryl Allen, the volleyball coach was next with the Cheerleading coach, Amy Parks following next. The basketball coaches took the stage to congratulate each player on a job well done.

Grad Bash 2013

Molly Gordon, Shark Correspondent


While graduation remains to be first on the list of important events for a senior in their last year of high school, Grad Bash is usually pretty high on that list as well.
Universal Studios in Orlando hosts what seniors call "an insanely fun, but super tiring event" for seniors from all parts of Florida. Schools arrived by the bus-loads at 8 pm and the gates close behind them, meaning they are "trapped" in the park until 2 am and are able to ride as many roller coasters as possible for the 6 hours.

Cedar Key Students were not so fortunate in their trip to Orlando this past Friday. When the students arrived, the sky opened up and a storm of wind and rain soaked them all. Regardless of the downpour, the wet clothes and the heavy water-filled shoes, the students of Cedar Key School continued to enjoy their night.
