Summary

Marissa Moore and the Anchor staff showcased a new website and announced a forthcoming news magazine; the board recognized multiple students and staff as Students/Staff of the Month.

At the Feb. 24 meeting, Marissa Moore and the high‑school Anchor newspaper staff demonstrated a new website and outlined an expanding student media program. Moore said the site preserves an archive of student writing and allows for digital corrections and multimedia, and she announced a news magazine debuting in March.

Moore described the staff’s progress since she assumed the adviser role in 2022 and credited students for building the website. "We have archived every article that we have written since we first started printing," Moore said. She highlighted student roles: Lily Nandell (editor in chief), Ella Steinman (editing lead), Giuliana Ortiz (writing lead) and Olivia Fuller (graphic design lead).

The board also recognized student honorees for February, including Nana Hinson (Elementary Student of the Month) and Charles Davidson (Middle School Student of the Month), and named several staff members of the month for excellence in instruction and student support.
