I just sent a small army of 6th graders into the city to complete an "On the Street" for our story package. I apologize in advance to any of you who are questioned. ;)
Voices reporter Lisa Leinberger gave them some tips.
"Any questions?" she asked.
Isaac: "Can I tell people I'm Steve Smith?"
Sigh...
In 2006, then-editor Steve Smith of The Spokesman-Review had the idea of starting a publication for an often forgotten audience: teenagers. The Vox Box was a continuation of the Vox, an all-student staffed newspaper published by The Spokesman-Review. High school student journalists who staffed the Vox made all content decisions as they learn about the trade of journalism. This blog's mission was to give students an opportunity to publish their voices. The Vox Box and the Vox wrapped up in June 2009, but you can follow former staffers' new blog at http://voxxiez.blogspot.com.
