September 2022 - VIBES

VIBES Volume 6 / Issue 3 September 20222

Meet the Editorial Board VIBES was initially a concept, something we could only hope to achieve someday. We never expected to receive something so large in such a short period of time. The first portion of the VIBES editorial board 2020-2021 was prepared and given to our seniors, who were Rema E.A (10A), Jessica B. (10A), Licia M.S (10A), Ridhima R. (10A), Angelina A. (10A), and Aditya K. (10B). The previous editorial board poured in their hearts and souls into the first volume. We may not be able to match an investiture event, but with what we have, we, the new editorial board, would like to thank our seniors for their hard work that has resulted in a fresh beginning- VIBES 2022- 2023.
