My Grandson Has A By Line!

Once a month there is a community newsletter delivered in the mail to everyone who lives on the west side of our town. Sometimes I scan the pages to see if there are some articles I want to read. It is a 40 page periodical with lots of items about home and school and church functions.

The copy that was delivered yesterday has only one story on the front page, about happenings at the new high school that is opened near us. I was very pleasantly surprised to see that article was written by my grandson. He is a freshman at the new high school, playing basketball and participating in school life for the first time after having been home schooled from kindergarten through his junior high years.

The boy is taking a journalism class, and is working on the yearbook staff. The story in the community newsletter continues on page 2 and ends on page 3. The young man did a nice job, if I do say so myself. Best of all, it was paid by the paper for his efforts.
