MCHS yearbook staff awarded national honor
BY KRISTI REED
The National Scholastic Press Association (NSPA)
has awarded the Mill Creek High School yearbook
staff their first nationally recognized award for the
2007 yearbook, the Accipiter.
The Accipiter received a rating of “First Class
with two Marks of Distinction” from the NSPA pub
lication critique service. Publications are judged
in several categories including photography, theme,
writing and overall creativity. The Accipiter staff
scored 3,650 out of 4,000 possible points. The
yearbook received marks of distinction for concept
and design.
Kay Reynolds, Accipiter co-advisor, said the staff
hopes to achieve an “All-American” rating during
their next critique.
“[The Accipiter] has improved every year,”
Reynolds said. “We’re excited for our third year to
already be awarded first class.”
Junior Andie Tuggle is a returning staff member.
Tuggle said the NSPA award motivates everyone
involved with the yearbook.
“It makes you feel good about all the work. The
things that don’t come back in a positive way make
you want to work harder next year,” Tuggle said.
The Accipiter takes its name from the Latin word
for red hawk. The staff is comprised of 46 students
and has an annual budget of over $200,000.
West Jackson Middle School has named the fol
lowing students to the perfect attendance list for the
first nine-week grading period.
