Public schools need student newspapers as vehicle of literacy and civic engagement, says City Council
Briefly

"Student journalism programs are essential to helping students develop writing skills, build community, hold school leaders accountable and develop a more racially and socioeconomically representative pipeline of professional journalists."
"Participation in a student newspaper not only expands a student's knowledge and abilities but also contributes to a future of democratic freedoms, government accountability, and a more news-savvy, better informed society."
