Research Part Four: A School's First Attempt to Publish a Newspaper!

Some schools are attempting to bring back a student newspaper for a variety of 21st century purposes, including exposing free speech, and informing others. In her article "PHS Brings Back Student Paper" Colleen Williamson explores how four students in a 21st century Journalism Class are bringing the old newspaper back into publication. For example, "Parsons said he and his class are receiving guidance and help from the Parsons Sun in laying out and publishing their papers, but the content is developed by the students through brainstorming sessions" (Williamson). Just like them, we have the guidance of Mr. Skillings and the Hatchet as experienced people who can help us make this paper look as good as its potential allocates it.
