My Project

Journalism students are constantly rushing to work on their articles, photos, editing, videos, page design, business management, and web publishing. Every day of class resembles a three-ring circus. No other class at our school incorporates so many skills and such rewarding work.

Our students win frequent accolades for their work, earning dozens of awards per year.

When our school's actors, musicians, artists, and athletes deliver exciting performances, journalists are there to record the moment, but they often go further, rising far above usual high school standards in their subject matter and coverage quality.

While we’ve grown a large online following, we still like to produce printed editions to maximize our readership. This project aims to support that activity so the students can focus on producing content.
