Sweet Pea Ratliff is a sophomore at East and this will be her first year on The Oracle staff. Ratliff is most excited about the writing aspect and the creative outlet that The Oracle will provide. “I love writing,” Ratliff said. “I’m excited about getting to write reviews, and maybe an opinion piece, and I’m really interested in art so maybe doing an art submission would be neat.” Ratliff’s favorite parts about East include the classes that are offered here, such as Digital Art which is her favorite, and the people here. Outside of school, she loves to listen to music, play video games, and watch Bob’s Burgers with her sister, Poppy. She is one of five kids in her family, along with five cats (Abba, Bones, Baby, Obie, and Stinky) and one dog (Prim). One fun fact about Ratliff is that she used to compete in Roller Derby.
