Reflection & LP Feb. 26-March 1

Very busy week despite rain outs and wrapping up the 4th six weeks. In sociology we chipped away at learning the terminology of the discipline and how to apply it. J1 pursued their skill development in feature writing and what separates it from news writing.

The best part of the week came with senior staff members staying after school to solve the problems of the world, plan futures and address a range of issues that were mind boggling.  

The weekend stretched out with another UIL Journalism practice meet in Lindale after a playoff basketball game in Nac. Short, short weekend as we head into the first week of the 5th six weeks.
