Jonathan Law junior McKenzie Forte is leading the Class of 2027 T-Shirt Contest. Advocate Social Media Editor-in-Chief Madilynn Black interviewed Forte about the contest.

Madilynn Black: What inspired you to start the T-shirt contest for your class?

McKenzie Forte: I wanted to create something that celebrates our class identity and gives everyone a chance to contribute creatively. As an artist myself, I love when we can incorporate it into fundraising.

MB: How are students submitting their designs, and what’s the deadline?

MF: Students are submitting their designs digitally through a Google Form. The link is provided on our class of 2027 Google Classroom and the deadline is this Friday.

MB: What are you looking for in the winning design – certain colors, themes, or messages?

MF: We’re looking for designs that reflect unity, school spirit, and a bold message that represents our class of LAWMEN as a whole.

MB: How will the final design be chosen – by votes, a committee, or both?

MF: The final design will be chosen through both class vote and input from the Student Council to ensure fairness and appropriateness.

MB: What do you want the shirt to represent about your class as you head into senior year and graduation?

MF: I hope the shirt captures our journey, our pride, and the legacy we want to leave behind as we go through high school.
