Yesterday the Texas Association of Journalism Educators released that Bowie senior Natalie Cullen has been named 2nd Runner-up Texas High School Journalist of the Year.
This was the first time the Dispatch had a student enter this highly competitive contest and for Natalie to finish 3rd is awesome. It is an extremely brutal contest that requires a high standard of work across 12 distinct categories from design, photography, writing and multimedia, to law, ethics, news literacy, marketing and diversity. If she had won the competition, she would have represented the state at the Journalism Education Association National Journalist of the Year Competition.
To enter, Natalie had to create a website. It can be seen here: https://nataliecullenjoy.myportfolio.com/
Natalie has been an amazing Online Editor-in-Chief the past two years, and we will certainly miss her when she graduates this year. She is off to New York University where she will go into the Radio, Film and Television and Business school where she hopes to eventually double major. Please join me in congratulating her.
This is the first of a number of major contests we have entered this year, so expect to hear more from me about Natalie and the rest of the Dispatch staff in the coming weeks and months.
Thank you,
Michael Reeves, MJEJames Bowie High School - Austin, TexasDispatch Media Adviser
