2022-23 Postscript Receives Gold Medalist Critique from Columbia Scholastic Press Association
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.”
Congratulations to 2022-23 Editors-in-chief Kelby James ’23, Will Peres ’23, and Zoë Pickard ’23, to the faculty advisers, and to all editors and writers who contributed.
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.
Liz Ransom, Faculty Adviser
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.
