As one of the co-curricular activities offered at North, the Publications staff works to deliver a yearbook once a year and a newspaper every month. While in the past this co-curricular class has only been given standard credit, the class will be given an honors credit option for the next school year.
“It is something that will be nice, to actually be able to reward those students who are in a publication course, who went far beyond expectations,” adviser Aaron Manfull said.
To receive the honors point, students will have to successfully complete an extra project that is not included in the normal class criteria. This is something that will reward those students who go above the average expectations.
For students that are interested in joining publications, to be eligible you have to have taken journalism, digital photo journalism, or another adviser approved prerequisite.
