My Project

This 2022 school year our school has created a journalism class for the students to create the school's monthly newsletter. This will allow classes to take on journalism jobs. They will also be creating the graduate yearbook. Students will be responsible for adding pictures, creating layouts, and publishing the yearbook with this laptop. The class will also teach students to create the graduation programs. We will be using different fonts and layouts to create the finished products. This new class will allow the students to be creative and explore different journalism job opportunities.
