Cougar Catnip: Lunch Lines

Cougar Catnip: Lunch Lines

Emma Blackburn November 14, 2024

Most students at VHS would agree that the lunch lines are horrendous. It’s very annoying getting pushed just for some lunch, especially since the doors to enter are so small. I don’t understand the...

Cougar Catnip: Morning music

Brie Cheatham October 23, 2024

Let's get it started in here. It's hard to ignore the pop culture music being blasted every morning. Sure this wake up hype music thing is a good idea. Some of the songs students requested are socially...

Cougar Catnip: Give us new waters fountains please

Halle Gentry November 10, 2022

Cougar Catnip: Singing in the rain

Cougar Catnip: Singing in the rain

Christian Montecino October 14, 2022

Since we don’t get much rain here in Ventura, it’s always refreshing to get even a little drizzle of water in our county. Just this past week, we had a big thunderstorm, our first in a while. To be...

Cougar Catnip: Having to use our IDs to get lunch is a nightmare

Cougar Catnip: Having to use our IDs to get lunch is a nightmare

Kinda Mehael September 21, 2022

Since the beginning of the 2022-2023 school year, students have had to have their ID cards to get lunch. I think that’s very unnecessary and frankly, stupid. Most students don’t even carry their IDs,...

Cougar Catnip: Block schedule is NOT ideal!

Cougar Catnip: Block schedule is NOT ideal!

Belen Hibbler May 27, 2022

It’s nice only having three classes a day, but this new schedule doesn’t comply with my social needs. Block periods are 100 minutes while regular periods are 54 minutes. This makes sense because the...

Y’all! The Taco Bell restaurant across from VHS is coming back! For four months, I have seen the building be abandoned, neglected! I think I even saw a ghost haunting it! But, I saw the HOLY Taco Bell...

Cougar Catnip: Where did the time go?

Cougar Catnip: Where did the time go?

Samantha Castañeda May 18, 2022

School went by so quickly! I don’t have to wake up at six in the morning to get ready for school. Summer 2020 and 2021 weren’t that great because some places were closed and I couldn’t really do...

Cougar Catnip: They’re starving us!

Sophia Nacu May 17, 2022

I thought prom was going to be the most beautiful, magical night of my life… Until I found out I wasn’t going to be able to eat dinner! I understand that beverages are free and so is dessert, but I...
