Doug Scarbrough
Auburn Middle School’s reigning main character. Spelling Bee champion, Duolingo machine, Fortnite menace, and the only person you know who owns a lightsaber that is currently, deliberately, set to Sith Red. The 7th grade was simply not ready.
2025–2026 AMS Spelling Bee Champion
While other kids were guessing, Doug walked to the microphone like he already knew. He did already know. The trophy now lives on a shelf where the sunlight hits it at exactly 4:12 PM.
Amphibious/amˈfɪb.i.əs/
adjective. Able to operate on both land and water. Also: how Doug moves through a school hallway. A-M-P-H-I-B-I-O-U-S. No hesitation. No notes.
A 966-day Duolingo streak
Birthdays, road trips, the stomach flu, a school field trip with no signal - the streak survived all of them. The owl has stopped sending threats. The owl now sends respect.
An elite Fortnite player
Builds before you finish reading this sentence. The phrase “I’ll be down in five minutes” is, in his case, a Victory Royale away.
A huge Juice WRLD fan
Knows every word. Has opinions about the deep cuts. Will defend the discography in the cafeteria with the conviction of a constitutional lawyer. 999 forever, and not just because it’s a cool number.
“The headphones are in. He is somewhere better than 7th-period math.”
- a teacher, probably
A color-changing lightsaber
Yes, it changes color. Yes, you can try it. No, he will not lend it to you. It is currently set to Sith Red, which tells you everything about the energy he’s bringing this year.
Spelling champion. Streak holder. Fortnite problem. Blue Lynx through and through. The 7th grade is lucky to have him.
