About the Contributors
Lauren Anderson, Copy Editor
Lauren Anderson is a Senior at Pleasant Valley and serves as Copy Editor for the Spartan Shield. She has played volleyball for over five years, and her time in the sport has led her to coach as well. You may recognize her as a marching band section leader during PV football games where she plays french horn: her instrument of eight years. Lauren is an active member of the youth group community at St. Paul Lutheran Church where she volunteers and spends time with friends. In addition, Lauren has been a member of Women in STEM Club since sophomore year which allows her to advocate for female voices. Lauren enjoys reading, walking her dog Augie, spending time with friends, and being outside hiking and waterskiing. Her various experiences academically, athletically, and artistically enable her to write with diverse perspective, and she looks forward to exploring journalism this semester.
Caroline Sierk, Copy Editor
Caroline Sierk is a Copy Editor for the Spartan Shield and a senior at PVHS. She is also a member of the PV Publications team, where she works as the Business Manager and the Photo Manager. Aside from journalism, Caroline is heavily involved in theatre as PV Drama Club Secretary, serves as an Iowa State Thespian Officer (STO), and is a regular in school productions. Caroline’s involvement in theatre stems from her love for singing, as she has trained in classical voice for seven years. She is a three-year member of the Iowa All-State Chorus and was the only female soloist in 2021. Caroline also placed 1st in the classical and music theatre categories in the regional NATS (National Association of Teachers of Singing) competition this fall. Caroline will attend the University of California: Los Angeles this fall with a double major in vocal performance and communications. Caroline is thrilled to write for the Spartan Shield this year and hopes to use her position to give a voice to those who do not have one.
