Students in the Journalism class at SJHS 205.95 KB

If writing is power then we have a lot here at Springville Junior High, because we have a whole class dedicated to writing for  your benefit. This class is the Journalism class.         

According to Ms. Dunn,the journalism teacher, the goal of the Journalism class is publicity for  the school, and to make people aware of the good things we are doing here. Examples of things they consistently write about, are teacher spotlights, student life, and sports. These are fulfilling their goals because these are all important things to inform parents, students, and teachers about.        

To get into Journalism, students who were interested had to fill out applications. Ms. Dunn then emailed the English teachers with a list of the kids who were interested in being in the Journalism class and asked to get more information about them. All the students who applied made it onto the staff. The current Journalism class consists of 10 students.

As hard as the Journalism class works they also have a lot of fun working together. Amanda Hall’s favorite part of Journalism is getting to interview students. Chloe Wimmer likes the chromebooks and talking with  friends. Stephen Gantt likes the writing.        

The Journalism class is very helpful yet fun. They work very hard to inform SJHS of current events.
