Boys' Golf wrap up
In golf, consistency is just as crucial as skill. Even the most celebrated golfers in the world understand that if their performance doesn’t remain stable, they’ll suffer on the course. And unfortunately for Samo’s boys’ golf team, a range of inconsistencies kept them from the success they long coveted.

A Night of Madness: An incredibly normal look at how we treat the psychologically 'touched.'
Samo theater takes a profound look at the human condition in this fall's "A Night of Madness."
Successors and the pressure to succeed
Sibling rivalry is omnipresent at Samo, just as is the pressure to succeed in athletics for younger siblings after their older siblings have graduated. The Samohi spoke with three Samo juniors who are under pressure to uphold the family legacy in athletics and beyond.
After Homecoming victory, Samo is 3-0 in the Ocean League

Inside the June 2 Samo film festival with Nicole Andrews
As if creating and editing their own individual projects weren’t time consuming enough, the members of the program must also organize and shape the festival; this includes publicizing the event, communicating with local businesses, working non-stop on the day of the festival and producing an introduction video that corresponds with this year’s theme, German Expressionism. Prominent in the early 20th century, German expressionism is over-the-top and unnatural, utilizing bizarre angles and techniques.
New faces of Samo ASB at work
As the 2010-2011 school year comes to a close, and Samo seniors say their goodbyes, a wave of fresh new faces takes on leadership roles at 601 Pico Blvd. The newly elected ASB cabinet of 2011-2012 has many ideas to improve Samo and make next year the most spirited year in the school’s history.
