Gretchen Lauer, a senior, joins the Miter this year as a staff member. She gets her news from students on campus, teachers, and local news stations. 

At Blanchet, she participates in varsity softball. She also participates in the Bigfoot club and Ski and Snowboard club. She loves being outside and exercising, and is always willing to go on a new adventure. Gretchen loves Blanchet's spirit; whether getting rowdy in the stands during spirit week, or dressing the themes for football games, she always participates. She plans to attend more school events this year and join new clubs. Outside of school, Gretchen loves to ski, travel, hike, try new restaurants, and hang out with friends and family. 

This year in journalism, Gretchen hopes to get the inside scoop from students and teachers on what going to school at Blanchet is really like. She wishes to capture the spirit of Blanchet through her writing so that others can experience it. She is excited to work on producing an interesting and captivating yearbook that is different from past years.
