The Observer Visits McAlister

|

As part of the fifth-grade journalism unit at McAlister Intermediate School over the past three years, representatives from The Suffield Observer have been invited to speak to the students about what it takes to put together a monthly paper and how getting something written might actually happen. This year, on a beautiful October day, the fifth-grade students were gathered on the tennis courts behind the school to allow for social distancing and a speaker system was set up.
