London Ford is a sophomore at NC on The Chant. Recently, Ford hasn't written anything seriously but did create a significant amount of fiction stories back in middle school. This year, Ford joined the newspaper because she stopped writing after entering high school, and saw The Chant as an opportunity to get back into the activity again. Aside from writing, Ford loves to play volleyball and goes to the gym several times a week. Ford aspires to be a veterinarian due to her absolute love for animals, especially cats. She is grateful that this year she’ll be able to be a part of this opportunity with other writers, and is most excited for all of the projects she will be able to complete this year with The Chant

By removing naps from the daily schedule–to minimize class time interruption and improve student focus – the lack of sleep does the exact opposite in showcasing teens’ decline in concentration.

Sarcoptes Scabiei Mites, or Scabies, continue to spread from country to country due to limited knowledge of the rash. Americans currently falling victim to the infection in California and Missouri possess little to no resources to cure scabies and they ultimately suffer prolonged effects. Around the world, people have grown paranoid of the possibility that they may contract the infection at any moment through their day-to-day lives, leaving them cautious of the contagious rash’s unbearable irritation.
