The reading and writing data for our school has been plummeting for the last four years. Our students were not reading and definitely not writing once they left the school. Although, a writing program was implemented, the practice that was needed to maintain the growth wasn't provided regularly. Our students are far behind in the foundations of writing. A school newspaper, would benefit our students because not only would it engage the students with somethings they can personalize, but it would also help strengthen their reading and writing skills in an environment with no judgement, no grading scale and extra assistance to help them produce a quality piece of work that will be shared with all their peers. Students involved with the school newspaper will be able to put practical application skills being taught to them in the classroom to use.The newspaper will give our students the freedom to express themselves in a manner that is respectful, thoughtful, and accepted. The laptops and printers will be used to produce their stories and the school newspaper it self. We are in need of a heavy duty printer (with lots of ink) so that we can produce our newspaper monthly. The paper is for the layout of the newspaper each month. Although there are other things that are needed, the substantial items are on the list first.
