For readers of Today magazine, the word Windsock may spark different feelings. For some of you, \u201cWhat is Windsock?\u201d and for others, \u201cHey, that\u2019s my old school newspaper!\u201d Did you know that it\u2019s back after a three year hiatus?<\/p>\n
When Erin Rhodes \u201816, Rachael Brenneman \u201817 and I made the decision to start up Windsock again I don\u2019t think any of us realized what we were getting ourselves into. We had no idea what we were doing, but thanks to Mrs. Mary Cranston, our faculty advisor and English teacher, we learned how to write as journalists, how to recruit fellow students to join our ranks, and how to print and publish issues. We also didn\u2019t realize that by involving ourselves with the school newspaper, we had immersed ourselves into a legacy of student journalists and writers that had gone down in \u201cthe underside of history,\u201d as EMS history teacher Mr. Elwood Yoder often says.<\/p>\n
I am proud to be a part of this legacy and I hope that the work we have done will inspire students to continue this tradition. You can pick up a copy of Windsock at the EMS Main Campus, or read it online.
