About the Contributor
Kennedy Perrigo, Managing Editor
Coming to BMU to start her eighth grade year, Kennedy dove right into the many extracurricular activities the school offered. Currently, she is a member of the Student Council, National Honors Society, and Yearbook Committee. Not only focused on academics, Kennedy plays on BMU’s soccer and softball teams. From a young age, Kennedy has always played hockey; she carried that passion with her to BMU and became the only high school student to play for a varsity hockey team, the Kingdom Blades. When not on the field or waiting for the Zamboni, you can find Kennedy hunting, fishing, hanging out with friends, snuggling up with her French Bulldog, Boone, or avoiding her brother whom she likes to call her ‘Bother.’
