2022-23 Postscript Receives Gold Medalist Critique from Columbia Scholastic Press Association

Category:

The Columbia Scholastic Press Association awarded the 2022-23 Postscript, our student newspaper, a Gold Medalist Critique — our 12th in the last 20 years. The judge commented that the newspaper is interesting and good-looking, noting that “[the staff] cover[s] many things well, especially the academic program and administration.”

One of the many amazing aspects of “Postscript” is that it is completely student-led and produced. The “Postscript” is not part of a class. Zoë, Will, and Kelby, last year’s senior Editors-in-Chief, led their student team to this well-deserved accolade by working during free periods, after school, and on weekends. From deciding the stories, design, layout, writing, and editing, they made their vision for the newspaper a reality. I’m so proud of what they accomplished and feel privileged to have had the opportunity to support them, along with Co-Advisor Susan Weintraub.

More about Postscript: A wholly extra-curricular activity, the newspaper is staffed by highly motivated and dedicated editors and writers who spend hours after school and during weekends to create a newspaper that reflects their sense of news, commentary, features, arts, and sports. As a student-run organization, the content and look of the paper are the responsibility of its editors, and the school fully supports this effort by giving them the freedom to publish openly.
