This is the 2008 iliad, Clarke Central High School’s literary-art magazine. It is the
combined effort of the staff and the school that helps to create this representation
of our diverse student body into one magazine.
The iliad is something that many students don’t find anywhere else -- an outlet. It
allows them to be free in their creative forms of expression, whether it be through
a camera, a pen, a keyboard or a paintbrush. The voices throughout the magazine
are ones which may otherwise go unheard or unseen.
It is the iliad that gives the student body a tangible product, which helps to validate
the idea that creative writing is important, and in turn, that each individual
is important. It brings people of different grade levels, ethnicities and cultures
together, creating a sense of community in the format of a magazine.
