The Pony Express Middle School Staff
The Pony Express was a section of The Hitching Post that focused on middle school issues. After the digital transformation of the paper to The Equestrian, The Pony Express was kept relevant by the efforts of Maya Lee-Lopez (class of 2015) and Niki Stanborough. Today it is led by it's first middle school editor, Holly Reiland. We meet almost every day in Mr. Abuel's room at lunch, even though the real meeting days are on Monday and Thursday.
The Editor
Holly Reiland
Holly is the first middle school editor of the Pony Express. She likes reading and writing. She could never live without her dog Chief. She likes food, especially dried mango and cherries. She is also the ASB secretary and the vice president of MESA club. |

Karlee is in eighth grade and is probably one of the most responsible writers of the Ponies. She loves to eat and can do some really crazy things! It is very likely she would win the Hunger Games. She seems to always be laughing. |

Cassidy is also in ASB (as the Community Service Commissioner) and in charge of fundraising in the MESA club. She also likes boxing.
