8 | February 20, 2020 | The lake forest leader community LakeForestLeaderDaily.com Ellie The Jahraus Family, Lake Forest My name is Ellie. Libby came into my life Dec. 9, 2017. I know that date well because I no longer got to rule the roost. I was the princess for 13 years and now I have to share my house with a scaredy cat! I’m really good at snuggling with my mom and making Libby scoot over away from me at bedtime. I keep an eye on things and a great mouser if it’s filled with catnip. I’m polydactyl, more toes to slap ya with! And I have a stub tail, my dad says I always leave the room with an exclamation point!

Student covers the Iowa Caucuses for <strong>LF</strong>HS newspaper Peter Kaspari, Editor A student editor of The Forest Scout, Lake Forest High School’s student newspaper, experienced what it’s like to be a realworld journalist earlier this month when he went to the Iowa Caucuses and reported on them for his fellow classmates. Casey Murray, who is the news and opinions editor for The Forest Scout, spent four days in Iowa — Feb. 1-4 — with his father and some of his father’s friends as they went to the Democratic caucus to kick off who that party will nominate as its presidential nominee. Murray said his father has been going to the caucuses since 2008 with his friends, with the exception of 2012, and the student journalist was able to join his father this year and in 2016. When the fellow staffers of The Forest Scout learned Murray was going to the caucus, it was decided to have him report from Iowa on what was happening. “I thought, this is interesting,” he said. “It’s something that we don’t generally see because nobody really comes out here, so I thought I’d do some reporting.” He described his time in the state as “hectic.” “We were either driving or in a campaign rally pretty much the whole time,” he said. “There was a very energetic attitude, but there was also some kind of, ‘How do any of them win?’ attitude in our car.” Murray got to see an actual caucus at the Clive Learning Academy, located in the Des Moines suburb of Clive. “And we went to see Elizabeth Warren’s caucus night party because we really hadn’t heard her give a substantive speech,” he said. He even got to ask the Massachusetts senator a question, which was the only interaction with a candidate he had that night. “We were basically at one of her rallies and we were outside of where the event was actually going to be held, because we didn’t get there in time,” Murray said. “But she came out for the first five minutes of the event and answer a few questions. I got to ask her one.” Murray also stood just feet away from U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, of Vermont. “He was there for like 10 minutes and it was mainly (Ohio) State Sen. Nina Posted to LakeForestLeaderDaily.com 2 days ago Turner and Jane Sanders (the candidate’s wife) and the regional campaign director,” he said. What made this particular caucus a little unique was the fact that caucus results weren’t officially reported until nearly 24 hours after the caucus had ended, which has been attributed to an app that was being used by the caucuses for the first time. Murray said he was at the Warren campaign rally when he learned of the delay in results. “We thought it was fine until we were at the party and it was 9:30 (p.m.) and there were still no results,” he said. “And we were kind of like, ‘Oh, what’s going on?’” Murray said Warren eventually took the stage to explain what was happening. As a student who enjoys both journalism and politics — he is also a member of the Lake Forest High School Model United Nations team — he really enjoyed seeing how the caucus worked. “Seeing the retail politics in action was very interesting, because they have to persuade these people and have to engage the audience,” he said. “So they’re really putting on their best performance.” He also learned a lot from being a student journalist covering a major event that countless other media were at. “...the press was very present,” he said. “I was looking around. At each rally, I would look for the press, see where they were. They had all the better spots than me, which was kind of upsetting.” But he learned a valuable lesson; when you’re with the press and covering an event, let them know ahead of time so they’ll know to expect you. He said he’d also look at other media outlets and how they reported on the caucus, which gave him an idea of what to include in his own stories. As for a future career, he’s unsure of what he wants to do after college, but he said politics does interest him, and he’d consider going into it, or at least volunteering for a campaign. He also praised Iowa as a state and suggested that others from Illinois go out to experience the state. “Iowa is literally right next door,” he said. “It’s a beautiful state, if a bit flat in parts. I’m not sure why more people don’t go out there themselves.” THE WINNETKA CURRENT 2019 abuse allegation helps unveil others involving NSCDS Two additional cases of alleged sexual misconduct were uncovered by a firm hired to investigate a 2019 abuse claim involving North Shore Country Day School in Winnetka. Previously reported by The Winnetka Current last June, the original allegation was made by a former female NSCDS student, who reported on social media she was emotionally and sexually abused by a volunteer coach more than 10 years ago while a student at the Winnetka school. In response to the accusation, NSCDS officials moved to looking into the claim by informing the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services; hiring investigators David Wolowitz and Susan Schorr, of the McLane Middleton law firm; and working with T&M Protection Resources’ Sexual Misconduct Consulting and Investigations Divi- Please see NFYN, 11
