“My favorite movie is ‘The Elf ‘ because that’s where I got my name from.” Senior Jovie Golko

“My favorite movie is ‘Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire’ because it shows events that circle all around, first is the dragon egg, and then saving a person, and then after that the maze, and then the death of somebody, and that’s where Voldemort is born again.” Senior Danna Hernandez-Olivares

“My favorite movie is ‘The Notebook’ because I like romance movies and this movie holds a very special place in my heart.” Junior Ashly Burton

“I would have to say that my favorite movie is ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3’ mainly because of the soundtrack and the plot.” Sophomore Sophie Hardin

“My favorite movie would have to be ‘The Book of Life’ because when I was a little kid I watched the movie and I’ve been in love with it ever since.” Sophomore Alison Hernandez-Estrada

“My favorite movie is ‘SouthPaw’ because it was emotional and exciting at the same time.” Freshman Perry Coats

“James Bond movies are my favorite movies, because I mainly grew up with them and I’ve read the novels, and just have always been drawn to them. And this could also be because of all the different places he travels, storyline, and the villains in the movie are pretty neat too.” AP U.S. History Teacher David Russell

“My favorite movie is ‘A Goofy Movie’ because it’s a funny movie and if you watch Disney movies, this is a good classic movie that I watched when I was younger, so it’s pretty good.” AP Physics Teacher Hope Rector
