New News for Journalist
Have you been wanting to become a better writer? Do you like to know the latest gossip? Do you have finesse in talking to strangers? How about photography? Is that your passion? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then I have the class for you. The Communications Department at SHHS is changing and growing. The Panther’s Paw and The Panther are undergoing significant changes that include digital formats and guest writers. This is partly due to the change in leadership. Mrs. Amy Blalock took over the department in late July and pledges to revamp the program to “be innovative”. She promises that the department will be “the premier communication center for the district by 2020 and a model for other East Texas school of how to innovatively combine skill and creativity to produce digitally literate and academically prepared journalist for the 21st Century.”
