Rachel Smith, Yearbook Co-Editor-in-Chief

Hello! I am co-editor-in-chief of Soaring Wings, Canyon High’s yearbook. I am co-president of choir, secretary of National Honor Society, president of Palo Duro 4-H Club and am involved in Key Club, musical, Drama Club, the all-state choir process and UIL academics. I love worship music, sock monkeys, Coca-Cola, Disney movies and font puns.
