As the end of the semester comes, the Springville Junior High Journalism staff must say goodbye. After two terms, the last day for the journalism group is January 15, 2009. Springville will be getting a new staff on January 20, 2009.

This is Ms. Miley’s first year of teaching journalism, and she hopes to teach journalism next year as well. “I really enjoyed teaching journalism this term. There were great kids in the class, and they worked hard to get articles published in the Springville Herald. They were also a lot of fun to teach. I'll miss them next semester,” Ms. Miley said.

Students enjoyed this class as well. “I liked journalism a lot. It was a lot of fun,” Sarah Fawson, eighth grade SJHS journalism student, said. “I think it is a really interesting class, and Ms. Miley is really nice,” Abi Santiago, another eighth grade SJHS journalism student, said. The students in Journalism enjoyed this term and are sad to leave the class.

“I'm excited to teach next semester's group of students. They have big shoes to fill, and I hope they can live up to this semester's group,” Ms. Miley said. Good luck to the new journalism staff!
