I have been in Newspaper for around two years now. My experience as a whole in this organization has been very positive and I thoroughly enjoy the community that it’s helped establish. I’m currently a junior attending Lake Highlands. Overall, my time being part of the school paper has allowed me to step outside my comfort zone by pushing me to interview those I’m not familiar with. My writing hobby has drastically improved due to my involvement in the school newspaper, and I’ve learned several notable skills that will stick with me for a while. Because of extracurricular, I’m able to come up with more in-depth questions that really push the interviewee to think long and hard about the discussion being proposed. This allows me to gain the information needed to really benefit my article.
