HURRAH! Another banner year in the Park student media!
Please join me in congratulating all of the editors, reporters, photographers, producers and crew of our amazing newspaper and television station for winning -- yet again -- a whole slate of extraordinary honors and awards this year. I am constantly amazed by the talent and accomplishment in the Park School, and while we don't need external validation of that excellence, it sure is nice when it happens!
Hurrah!
