Michael Korsh, Editor-in-Chief

Michael Korsh is a senior at Hopkins High School and is so excited to serve as one of The Royal Page’s Editors-in-Chief for this year! His Chipotle order is a burrito bowl with white rice, fajitas, chicken, tomato and corn salsas, cheese, sour cream, and lettuce. His Starbucks order is an iced decaf Vanilla Latte with light ice. You can usually find him in the newspaper room, getting swole in the pool, or tripping on his own feet.

Upon dismissal from the fall Pepfest on Oct. 6, the senior class stampedes the basketball courts as per tradition. This year, the seniors' stampede and aftermath prompted administration to seek changes in the culture of the student body at HHS.
