The Vox Box

IN THE NAME OF ALL THINGS GOOD IN THE WORLD!

What is this!? Post taken from Huckleberries, here...

The North Shining Stars perform in the tiny division at the All Star Cheer International cheerleading championship in Auckland, New Zealand suburb of Takapuna Sunday. You write the cutline.

QUESTION: Go ahead, write a cutline. Or just insert a JonBenet joke.



In 2006, then-editor Steve Smith of The Spokesman-Review had the idea of starting a publication for an often forgotten audience: teenagers. The Vox Box was a continuation of the Vox, an all-student staffed newspaper published by The Spokesman-Review. High school student journalists who staffed the Vox made all content decisions as they learn about the trade of journalism. This blog's mission was to give students an opportunity to publish their voices. The Vox Box and the Vox wrapped up in June 2009, but you can follow former staffers' new blog at http://voxxiez.blogspot.com.
