Student newspapers have been a staple in high schools across the country for decades; except for Forks High School. Here, you will find ordinary and familiar subjects; math, science, and English.

But what about the students who want to explore more than those subjects?

Last year, Eram’e Tost and Kendall Marshall proposed the idea to create a journalism class that can inspire people like myself, an aspiring journalist, to explore their dreams and delve into the world of writing. It’s evident there’s been a large absence of journalism and a school newspaper, we’re here to change that. With a team of two, our goal is to bring back a Forks High newspaper and keep it running for many years to come.
