Basic photography is taught with limited darkroom experience provided.
Layout and design are included in the course work, as is a study of press law and careers in journalism. Written work and photos generated by class assignments may be published in the school newspaper. Students will, however, be considered contributors to the newspaper as opposed to members of the staff. A student should have average grades or better in English as well as keyboarding skills. The concepts taught in Journalism will be put to use in actual production of the paper.
