Embedded Files
Journalism, Photojournalism and school-sponsored newspapers and yearbooks serve as a laboratory and an educational tool in the training of student journalists to provide information and editorial leadership. Students focus on matters concerning the school, local, national and international issues, to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and viewpoints and to give coverage of newsworthy events directly related to the school, individual students, staff and organizations. These student-driven publications provide journalism staff members with hands-on scholastic training on management and production of the school publications, using editorial judgment and journalistic integrity, as well as working within time constraints and budget limitations.
