Our journalism program is fundraising to go to Columbia University  in March for a journalism convention. Our award-winning publications are members of the competitive Columbia Scholastic Press Association and National Scholastic Press Association. 

This is a rare opportunity that will expose our student writers to classes taught at one of the most prestigious universities in the country.  Each student that is going on the trip went through a rigourous application process to be accepted. 

More than ever, young journalists need to understand fundamental rules of the trade, as the field is going through such major changes. This convention takes place in the media capital of the United States, where our students will tour the offices of The New York Times  as well as participate in three days of classes soley focused on journalism. 
 
Our fundraising goal for GoFundMe is $1600, and anything helps to get us there. Donating will help our journalism program improve as the students who are traveling return and teach their peers what they learn.
