Good News! Devils' Advocate Wins National Award!

Congratulations to the Devils’ Advocate staff!   The Devils’ Advocate 2012-2013 staff and advisor have won the prestigious Newspaper Pacemaker Award from the National Scholastic Press Association.  Evan Lee (’13) served as Devils' Advocate editor-in-chief, and Sarah Renehan (’13) was managing editor. English teacher Sue Grady is the newspaper advisor. 

This puts the Advocate staff in very elite company:  they are one of only five national winners in the Newsmagazine category. The Pacemaker is THE top award for high school journalism.  This award (according to the NSPA website) is based on the breadth and judgment of coverage, content, quality of writing, editorial leadership on editorial page, evidence of in-depth reporting, layout, design, photography, art and graphics.

Their award was announced at the annual NSPA convention in Boston this week.


Here's an
