Hi! My name is Sam, and I’m a sophomore. This is my first year on the Dispatch and I’m currently on the feature team. I’m excited to be joining the staff because I love to write and learn about new people and their stories, and The Dispatch is an amazing group of people. Other things I’m a part of at Bowie are the Swim and Dive team, Student Council, and Class Officers of 2026. I also love to hang out with my friends, go to concerts, and go paddleboarding. I’m really excited to see what we achieve this year!

Wearing an ID while walking through the door or around the halls shows that you are a student at Bowie, not a random person trying to get onto campus. We are trying to avoid the worst possible situations, and the IDs help with that.

The new ID policy is important
