Digital Journalism students create the Woodside Paw Print online newspaper. Students are encouraged to follow their interests in the context of producing an interesting, quality paper that acts as a voice for Woodside High School students.

We would like to offer 30+ minutes of live zoom interactions to students this coming fall, our dates are flexible and we will work around your schedule!Asking presenters to cover:
- Start with an overview of your career pathway, beginning with what you were interested in high school, college, early jobs, etc. and what you do today
- What key steps do you think helped make you successful? Was there an opportunity that you took? A risk? An important mentor or job?
- Then talk about some of the exciting stories that you are working with or direct today. Can you give them a challenge to demonstrate this? Maybe a topic/story and a few ways to address it?
- Finally, wrap up by bringing it down to their level, what 1-2 steps can they do now? join a club or team, meet with a teacher, etc.
