To anyone that has ever visited this website and read one of any of the articles published here, thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you – from the bottom corners of my heart. Thank you all for your support and viewership. The Nest was a place where Sophomore year me could find a voice and outlet to express my love for various pieces of media I love, and I have gained plenty in my writing journey. Thank you to my forgiving, supportive Editor-in-Chief Arianna Costello. You are too kind, and you will excel and be celebrated for the bountiful contributions you give to the things you value. Thank you Mr. Dring for the consistent support, encouragement, and guidance. Your effortless redirection allowed me to carve a path for myself in confidence. I grew more and more in every stride I took on the Nest and I am forever grateful. 

To the viewers, to any and all of our readers, thank you for reading these articles and supporting the voices of the youth both publicly (shoutout Mr. Fitz for putting a battery in my back) and privately. To my fellow writers, I am so proud of the writing you have all submitted and the growth you have all taken over this past school year. To all of you, thank you for everything.

With eternal gratitude,

Jadyn Hardy, Managing Editor
