DHS Newsmag Wins High School Journalism Award
Decatur Metro | September 28, 2007 | 8:14 pmFor the third straight year, Decatur High School’s Carpe Diem Newsmagazine has won the prestigious George H. Gallup award for journalism. The school’s press release quotes a Quill and Scroll judge saying “You chose great topics to cover, you write extremely well, and you really seem to have a great grasp of contemporary magazine design. . . . I think your publication ‘flows’ remarkably well considering the wide variety of topics and approaches you take to your stories.”
Atlanta’s Grady High School was the only other Georgia high school to make the cut.
Though fellow high school students receive the publication for free, members of the community can also receive a subscription for $10 (electronic) or $15 (hard copy). These subscription fees help offset production costs. Call 404/370-4420 ext. 161 or email [email protected] to subscribe.
