The newspaper production course is one of the few classes where there is a final product that reflects the students' hard work and effort. That final project is The Gargoyle, South High School's student newspaper.

The Gargoyle is a 16 page student newspaper published eight times each year that has earned a national 1st place ranking with the American High School Press Association for the last 4 years.

The actual class follows objectives and standards outlined by Denver Public Schools with an emphasis on practical experience. The course will require some after-school work, especially during deadline week. Staff members can look forward to writing news, features, sports, entertainment, opinions, and investigative stories during their time in the newspaper class. They will also get real-world experience through selling ads, managing a budget and working with media industry standard programs such as Adobe InDesign, Acrobat and Photoshop.

Students will also get to learn the basics of photography while capturing images for The Gargoyle. For more information on how you can become a part of The Gargoyle staff, talk to your counselor or contact Mr. Glover, newspaper advisor, at 720-423-6251 or joe_glover@dpsk12.org.
