About the Contributors
Jamilla Plowden, Editor-in-Chief
Hi guys! My name is Jamilla Plowden and I’m one of this year’s Editor-in-Chiefs. Outside of the Round Table, I am the Captain of the girls’ varsity basketball team, a 3-year varsity athlete of the track & field team, a proud member of the National Honor Society, and a Leadership Council member of Early College Studies. Within my busy schedule, I’m a movie fanatic, love writing poems, stress myself on Roblox, or occasionally read a corny romance novel. I am so grateful to be a part of The Round Table. I hope to make a mark on the 25-’26 newspaper!
Princesse Stessy Hyppolite, Distractions
Hey guys! I’m Princesse Stessy Hyppolite, and I’m this year’s Distraction Editor! When I’m not doing the Round Table, I’m all about sports. I am of the Wrestling Captains, and a Varsity thrower for the track and field team. Outside of sports I am part of the Leadership Council Member of ECS, and VP of the Chem Club. Although I have a busy schedule I still try to do things I enjoy. I love movies, shows, anime, Kdramas, Jdramas, Telenovelas, anything tv related. I also love spending time with people around me, and making new friends; so if you ever see me don’t be afraid to say hi :). So excited for this year!!!
