Yesterday, several journalism students traveled to Norfolk for the Class C State Journalism Awards Ceremony. Lawrence- Nelson qualified and placed in the top 8 schools for the Yearbook Theme Development category. This was for their work in last year's yearbook, "Building for our Future." The students and Mrs. Haba were anxious and excited to see so many places being called up while they were still waiting. As second place was called, the group lost it in excitement... as they had placed first again for the second year in a row.
Sophomores Tiffany Gonzalez-Gamez, Riley Haba, Natalia Wehrman, Paige Huston, Kynnedy Beale, and Epiphanae Lowery (not in attendance) brought home another gold medal for the L-N Journalism Staff.
We are so excited to see all of their hard work recognized!

Students at Lawrence-Nelson that are approved for Free or Reduced through other methods within the school will have cards issued on May 15th and should receive those about five days later.
