Pleasant Valley High School senior Jonathan Sulgrove holds the position of Opinion Editor for the Spartan Shield this year. Sulgrove loves all things technology. This is reflected by his big plans for college including double majoring in Computer Science and Digital Media. When he is not busy working on The Shield, completing other homework, or furthering his love for technology you can find him enjoying a gluten-free snack with his friends.
