Would you like to write about the school? Have a somewhat flexible work schedule? Decide stories for yourself?  Get to know Mrs. Trier a little too well? 

Join “The Orbit!” 

 With scheduling for next year’s classes underway, it is the perfect time to consider becoming a part of the journalism department. 

I joined the newspaper team during my sophomore year, and I have not regretted a second of it. Having a passion for written journalism, and knowing I wanted to pursue a career in journalism, I found that writing for “The Orbit” was the perfect opportunity to grow into my writing style and learn about becoming a reporter. 

My favorite part by far of being in the journalism department is the people. It is really fun being in a group that also loves to communicate with the school in different ways such as the broadcast and the yearbook and have teachers that encourage learning in a hands-on way. I would definitely recommend this class to anyone that wants to pursue a career in the writing field. 

Even for those of you that are not necessarily interested in journalism as a career, but want to be more involved within the school and gain some key writing skills, think about joining as well!
