High schoolers are invited to apply for a FREE camp during spring break! The camp will take place in the Juliet Hart Educational Room at the McCall Neighborhood Center and will be led by June Straight, M. Ed., who is a journalism and yearbook educator at Parkland High School in Northeast El Paso. Over the course of the week, students will create a special edition of the historic newspaper The Good Neighbor Interpreter while learning about developing, creating, photographing, and editing newspaper stories. At the end of the week, the paper will be printed and distributed for free at the McCall Neighborhood Center and El Paso Museum of History. The theme of this issue will be "El Paso Rising." Coinciding with the last week of the El Paso Museum of History's "Still We Rise: El Paso's Black Experience" exhibit, this issue will highlight the next generation of changemakers, artists, business leaders, and activists in our region.
