ECHO staff earns NSPA, CSPA honors
ECHO staffers were informed of several honors in the last few weeks.
ECHO was one of 44 student publications to be named National Scholastic Press Association Online Pacemaker Finalists.
Pacemaker finalists will receive plaques at the Opening Ceremony of the Spring National High School Journalism Convention in Anaheim, CA, on April 25, and Pacemaker winners will be announced April 27.
Columbia Scholastic Press Association awarded the ECHO a Gold Medalist Rating with All Colombian Honors for Essentials for its hybrid (print and online) platform.
The judge commented, “The Echo has something for every reader. Storytelling quotes bring events alive for the reader. The publication is all about the students at Webster Grove High School and their lives, their thoughts. One cannot help but feel a connection to the school community after reading this newspaper and exploring the digital site. That’s what makes it so special. ”
Also NSPA awarded the ECHO a First Class rating for its 2017-18 print version.
