Lauren Benson: Staff Writer, Staff Writer
Lauren Benson is enjoying her first year as a member of the Oracle staff, working as a news reporter. Before high school, she was homeschooled, so it took a little while to get used to those 8:00 am classes, and not being able to hide in the bathroom with a book whenever it was time for math. She likes to play basketball, watch movies, cook, and be outside. She loves animals and has wanted to volunteer at an animal shelter ever since she was 8. Writing is something she's done her entire life, so Oracle gives her the opportunity to do an activity she loves as well as learn about cool things at GBS that she never would have known about otherwise.
