Hello, my name is Chloe Vallier, I’m a freshman and a staff reporter here at Salida High School. I joined the newspaper because I want to grow as a writer, and to become more involved in the school. My favorite part about Tenderfoot times is the opportunity to meet new people, and learning about their lives and opinions. Outside of school I enjoy mountain biking, reading good books, skiing, and running. I’m excited to be a part of the Tenderfoot times community.
