Avery Knutson ’26 joins The Miter as a staff writer; a fun fact is that she has three dogs and a pet snake.

At Blanchet, Avery is passionate about leadership, writing, and community involvement. She is a fall cheer captain and also works in communications at Matthews Winery. She also participates in Bear Ambassadors and Freshman Connection. She plans to attend more school events this year and join new clubs. Outside of school, Avery loves to cheer, travel, work, and hangout with friends and family. 

Through The Miter, Avery hopes to strengthen her writing skills, and contribute meaningful stories that highlight the diverse experiences of Blanchet students. She wishes to capture the spirit of Blanchet through her writing so that others can experience it.
