Sarah O’Toole, a senior at Middletown High school, is currently enrolled in her first semester of journalism.  She enjoys playing soccer and basketball as well as creating beautiful music on her fiddle.  She prides herself in her role on the executive board for SGA, attending one meeting every two months.  Sarah hopes to become a miner and work underground for the rest of her life.  Although she doesn’t want to start a career in journalism she knows she would be capable of it because of her trustworthiness and fiery attitude.  Her favorite foods are broccoli and green beans. As a twin, Sarah struggles with sharing and being given less presents during the holiday season.
