On Wednesday, March 27, 2024, four members of the IHS High Arrow reporter staff were awarded monetary prizes and recognition for their efforts in the “Newspaper in Education” contest sponsored by the Indiana Gazette. 

 

Over 25 different elementary, middle and high schools entered the contest in various different categories. The IHS High Arrow had six reporters submit entries in three different categories: Cover Design, Feature Story and Opinion Column. Of the six reporter entries, the IHS High Arrow reporter staff was awarded four awards. Senior reporter Lizzie Olsen was awarded second place for her feature story, “From favorite childhood star to powerful political influence.” Junior reporter Addy Mosco was awarded second place for her opinion column, “Protect our people.” Junior Associate Business Manager Ella Mosco was awarded second place for her feature story, “A look inside the mind of a serial killer.” Sophomore Associate Editor Gabi Isenberg was awarded second place for her feature story, “She’s got a big reputation.”
