Speak up.
Write responsibly.

Accuracy comes first

Check names, dates, quotations, figures, and source material before submitting. Distinguish confirmed facts from interpretation. When a detail cannot be verified, make the uncertainty clear.

Give credit

Submit original work and identify all contributors. Credit photographs, illustrations, and outside sources. Do not present someone else’s work as your own. Include source links when they help readers verify a claim.

Respect the people in the story

Write with care for the school community. Avoid sharing private records, personal contact information, or details that could expose someone to harm. Obtain appropriate permission for identifiable photographs and material involving other people.

Keep opinion recognizable

Opinion pieces express a contributor’s perspective. News reporting and personal commentary should be clearly distinguished. A published contribution does not automatically represent every member of the school or publication.

Review before publication

Submissions enter a private editorial inbox. Editors may request clarification, verify information, edit for clarity, or decline a contribution. Writers should retain a copy of their original work. Publication is not guaranteed.

Make corrections visible

If you find an error, use Request a correction and identify the article and disputed detail. Verified substantive corrections should be recorded in the article so readers can understand what changed.

Care for the archive

Historical articles remain marked with their original school year and quarter. Their wording and credits are preserved unless an editorial correction is verified. The website does not invent dates, contributor biographies, or current appointments.
