Memorable things about Rochester

For this project we had to pick something about Rochester that was memorable and write an article about it. I chose to write about the famous criminal Aurthur Shawcross. This was a good assignment because of the research involved and formatting. I liked it because I had never heard of this guy before and I learned a lot of things about him that were interesting.


Newspaper article





Way earlier in the year we tried to start up a new school newspaper. We had to research things on our topic and make them into an article. This assignment was probably the most proactive for creative journalism because we had to push ourselves to find facts and the write them in the proper format and everything so it wasn't easy. I completed an article on High School evolution and then started another one on the dance department but didn't finish because we decided we weren't doing it. that was the most work having to go to each dance teacher, interviewing, getting quotes and searching the school website.
