Sorry, I don’t speak broke: elitism and fashion

April 19, 2019April 18, 2019Madeline Arcaro

With brands like Gucci and Supreme becoming increasingly popular, numerous KO students are seen “flexing” on campus by wearing the infamous Gucci stripe or a belt with the Louis Vuitton logo on it. While some view this as just a way of expressing oneself through fashion, others view it as a status symbol to try […]

April 19, 2019April 18, 2019Madeline Arcaro

On March 10, 74 students and 13 chaperones left KO for the 21st annual Team Tobati trip. The trip to Tobati, Paraguay was originally created to build the Colegio Privado Reinaldo Macchi school. Since the first trip in 1998, the trip has been more and more successful. While in Tobati, the students did a mixture […]

“thank u, next” review

March 8, 2019March 7, 2019Madeline Arcaro

I love Ariana Grande, as most people know. I think she’s super talented and funny, but honestly, I didn’t love her new album. I really wanted to like it to uphold my reputation, but I didn’t and it was upsetting. In fact, the first thing I sent anyone when I heard it was, “I’m having […]

‘Dumplin’ inspires self-love

February 1, 2019Madeline Arcaro

I’ll admit it: I like slightly cheesy and depressing teen fiction novels. That’s not a secret. With that being said, I can’t stand that in movies. I don’t even really like movies to begin with, if I’m being completely honest. I don’t have a very long attention span, and a lot of times, movies just […]

Kylie’s launch: sorta sweet

February 1, 2019Madeline Arcaro

I’m unhappy to admit that I actually like Kylie Cosmetics. I wanted to be against it, I wanted to hate what I bought, and I didn’t. I didn’t want to try Kylie’s makeup, because I was a little hesitant to support someone who I didn’t think worked hard for what she has. My other problem […]

Not Relatable

February 1, 2019February 1, 2019Madeline Arcaro

If I’m being completely honest, I don’t get the hype around Ellen Degeneres. I think she’s decently funny, and what she’s done for countless people around the world is fantastic, but the most I’ve ever seen from her is a few one-minute segments of her show on Instagram. I’ve never really thought of her as […]

James Charles x Morphe

December 14, 2018January 21, 2019Madeline Arcaro1 Comment

I really want to say that I hate James Charles. In theory, he’s super annoying. He’s a 19 year old beauty guru who is worth more than I will ever be. It’s crazy. With all being said, I do enjoy his videos. I think he’s super creative, both with his content and his makeup looks. […]

Niki Taylor

December 14, 2018Madeline Arcaro

So I’ve known Niki Taylor for over a year now. We had English class together for our Freshman year, took Journalism together second semester, and now we’re both associate editors for the reviews section. We’ve gotten to know each other pretty well. In case you didn’t know, the entire KO News staff meets twice for […]

‘Kid Gorgeous’: It Will Crack You Up

November 15, 2018November 14, 2018Madeline Arcaro

I had seen this guy who looks like a 1930s radio announcer on the internet for years. And one day, when reading a Buzzfeed article while I was supposed to be doing homework, I decided I’d had enough and Googled who he was. That was one of the best decisions I’ve made in my entire […]

Students of color connect in Connecticut

November 15, 2018November 15, 2018Madeline Arcaro

On Sunday, Nov. 4, Loomis Chaffee School hosted the SPHERE Students of Color event for youth of color who go to college preparatory schools in Connecticut. KO sent seven girls from the Girls Group of Color club, and the event proved to be a success with teens of all different races coming together to talk […]
