What's Happening: 9.14.10

Don't forget worknight is this Friday, September 17 beginning at 3:30. Everyone is expected to attend. We have much to do.

So...story ideas are everywhere. Today, in the Contra Costa Times, there is food for thought in a story on the safety of gas lines (do we have any here in Hercules? are they natural gas or something else? who is responsible for those lines?) and the release of API scores (how did HMHS fare this year? are scores up or down over last year? if they are down, what does that mean for our school? for college applications?)

Since most of the stories for the September issue are completed, start thinking about the stories you would like to do in October. Be prepared on Wednesday to pitch your ideas. Remember to prepare at least one idea for news, sports, feature, arts and opinion. Reviews fit under arts (generally speaking).

For those of you going on the Contra Costa Times field trip Wednesday, we will leave from the school at 4 pm. Please meet at H105. We should be back in Hercules by 7:30. If you are leaving your car here, leave it in the faculty lot OR down by the clock tower. DO NOT park in the faculty lot during the day. If you cannot attend, please let Wojo know before the end of the school day on Wednesday.
