Awards & Accolades
SNO Distinguished Site - 2019-2020
The Wolfpack officially became a distinguished site through School Newspapers Online, the organization that hosts online school news sites across the country. We are currently ranked #1 in the country and will continue to write in-depth features over our awesome CP students to stay in the Top 5. In order to become distinguished, we had to earn six badges, from social media engagement where we had to have a certain amount of traffic to our site and post on social media every day for 4 weeks in a row, to site design excellence, to multimedia, which included starting a podcast. The staff worked so hard for this accomplishment. Congratulations to all of them!
