Staff Profile

Sara Guglielmo –– Reporter

I, Sara Guglielmo, am a staff reporter for the Saxon Scope. This is my first year on the Saxon Scope and I am very excited to be a reporter. Last year as a freshman I was an avid reader of the Saxon Scope, which got me very interested in Journalism at Langley! I also heard great things about journalism from friends. In Middle School at Cooper I was very involved in the journalism program and learned the basics, which I will use to be successful in journalism this year. I am extremely excited to be involved with the Saxon Scope because I love writing and all of the staff members are great people!

Surveillance cameras may cost a lot of money, but they will make our school a safer place and decrease the amount of petty crime that goes on in Langley. Students... Read More

Langley Lip Dub is scheduled to happen in the second semester, but it can’t be a smash hit if the majority of the school isn’t aware of it.
