Diversity in studentsAs the school year ended for my junior year, I wanted to report on the LGBTQ+ students in my school and the upcoming Pride Month. I felt it was important that they were featured and those individuals were given a voice. My goal was to show that our school is diverse and inclusive, and that LGBTQ+ students aren't alone in their journeys through life.

Diverse newsroomDuring my junior year, a guest speaker named Kyndell Harkness spoke to my class about diversity. Kyndell is a reporter for the Star Tribune, located in Minneapolis. She spoke about the importance of having not only diverse content, but a diverse news room. Having a diverse news room is not only just the visible or obvious differences. Everyone is different in their own ways and that can be shown through opinions and ways they express themselves. |

Diverse interviews
This story features a varied amount of interviews, including students from different grade levels and a local business manager. They all spoke on what Valentine's Day means to them and how they celebrate. It was a unique viewpoint to have the business manager's perspective because she provided insight on how the holiday affects business at the store.
