Salma Baksh, Editor-in-Chief
Salma is currently a senior and has been the editor-in-chief of The Beacon since the fall of 2022. They channel their love of politics, community, activism, and education into two clubs at Forest Hills High School: Youth Informed (which she co-founded in her junior year) and Double-Up (in which they are currently Co-President). Salma is honored to serve as editor-in-chief for her second year in a row and derives fulfillment from the immense growth The Beacon has undergone since its return. She aims to establish The Beacon as the core of Forest Hills High School-- a paper that inspires critical thinking, creativity, and hope.
