Welcome to the June edition of Elements! It’s been a rough and odd past few months. Regardless of how you may feel about staying home, life in lockdown has given all of us a lot of time to think deeply about ourselves and our relationships with others. Considering all of this, we, Writer’s Club, thought that the most appropriate theme for this month’s edition of Elements would be Self-exploration and Discovery. The pieces published in this edition may relate strongly or weakly to the theme, but regardless, reflect the extraordinary talent present in the ISK high school. For all those who submitted their works, we thank you for your bravery and for those who are reading or viewing the magazine, we hope that you leave enlightened.
