Press Pass Mentors

Congratulations to juniors Beverly Carpenter, Malachi McCaskill, Earica Parrish, and DeNiyca Short on their acceptance to the Press Pass Mentor Program! Through this program, students are matched up with journalists from the Washington Post who serve as their mentors for two years. Students and their mentors travel across the city for behind-the-scenes field trips to the White House, Redskins games and more. Press Pass students will then write articles about their trips which will appear on the Press Pass Mentors blog. This great opportunity allows students to learn more about the field of journalism and develop their writing skills with help from a real reporter. To find out more about the program or get involved next year, find one of these lucky juniors or speak to Ms. Sher in the Dean’s Suite.
